title: Data from: Cross-seasonal legacy effects of arthropod community on plant fitness in perennial plants

description: 1. In perennial plants, interactions with other community members during
 the vegetative growth phase may influence community assembly during
 subsequent reproductive years and may influence plant fitness. It is well
 known that plant responses to herbivory affect community assembly within a
 growing season, but whether plant-herbivore interactions result in legacy
 effects on community assembly across seasons has received little
 attention. Moreover, whether plant-herbivore interactions during the
 vegetative growing season are important in predicting plant fitness
 directly or indirectly through legacy effects is poorly understood. 2.
 Here, we tested whether plant-arthropod interactions in the vegetative
 growing season of perennial wild cabbage plants, Brassica oleracea, result
 in legacy effects in arthropod community assembly in the subsequent
 reproductive season and whether legacy effects have plant fitness
 consequences. We monitored the arthropod community on plants that had been
 induced with either aphids, caterpillars or no herbivores in a
 full-factorial design across two years. We quantified the plant traits
 ‘height’, ‘number of leaves’ and ‘number of flowers’ to understand
 mechanisms that may mediate legacy effects. We measured seed production in
 the second year to evaluate plant fitness consequences of legacy effects.
 3. Although we did not find community responses to the herbivory
 treatments, our data show that community composition in one year leaves a
 legacy on community composition in a second year: predator community
 composition co-varied across years. Structural Equation Modelling analyses
 indicated that herbivore communities in the vegetative year correlated
 with plant performance traits that may have caused a legacy effect on
 especially predator community assembly in the subsequent reproductive
 year. Interestingly, the legacy of the herbivore community in the
 vegetative year predicted plant fitness better than the herbivore
 community that directly interacted with plants in the reproductive year.
 4. Synthesis Thus, legacy effects of plant-herbivore interactions affect
 community assembly on perennial plants across growth seasons and these
 processes may affect plant reproductive success. We argue that
 plant-herbivore interactions in the vegetative phase as well as cross
 seasonal legacy effects caused by plant responses to arthropod herbivory
 may be important in perennial plant trait evolution such as ontogenetic
 variation in growth and defence strategies.

title: Data from: Plant domestication disrupts biodiversity effects across major crop types

description: Plant diversity fosters productivity in natural ecosystems. Biodiversity
 effects might increase agricultural yields at no cost in additional
 inputs. However, the effects of diversity on crop assemblages are
 inconsistent, probably because crops and wild plants differ in a range of
 traits relevant to plant-plant interactions. We tested whether
 domestication has changed the potential of crop mixtures to over-yield by
 comparing the performance and traits of major crop species and those of
 their wild progenitors under varying levels of diversity. We found
 stronger biodiversity effects in mixtures of wild progenitors, due to
 larger selection effects. Variation in selection effects was partly
 explained by within-mixture differences in leaf size. Our results indicate
 that domestication might disrupt the ability of crops to benefit from
 diverse neighbourhoods via reduced trait variance. These results highlight
 potential limitations of current crop mixtures to over-yield and the
 potential of breeding to re-establish variance and increase mixture
 performance.

title: Data from: Long-term influence of early human occupations on current forests of the Guiana Shield

description: To decipher the long-term influences of pre-Columbian land occupations on
 contemporary forest structure, diversity and functioning in Amazonia, most
 of the previous research focused on the alluvial plains of the major
 rivers of the Amazon basin. Terra firme, i.e. non-flooded forests,
 particularly from the Guiana Shield, are yet to be explored. In this
 study, we aim to give new insights into the subtle traces of pre-Columbian
 influences on present-day forests given the archaeological context of
 terra firme forests of the Guiana Shield. Following archeological
 prospects on 13 sites in French Guiana, we carried out forest inventories
 inside and outside archaeological sites and assessed the potential
 pre-Columbian use of the sampled tree species using an original
 ethnobotanical database of the Guiana Shield region. Aboveground biomass
 (320 and 380 T.ha-1 respectively), basal area (25-30 and 30-35 m2.ha-1
 respectively) and tree density (550 and 700 stem.ha-1 respectively) were
 all significantly lower on anthropized plots (As) than on non-anthropized
 plots (NAs). Ancient human presence shaped the species composition of the
 sampled forests with Arecaceae, Burseraceae and Lauraceae, significantly
 more frequent in As and Annonaceae and Lecythidaceae more frequent in NAs.
 While alpha diversity was not different between As and NAs, the presence
 of pre-Columbian sites enhances significantly the forest beta diversity at
 the landscape level. Finally, trees with edible fruits are positively
 associated with pre-Columbian sites while trees used for construction or
 for their bark are negatively associated with pre-Columbian sites. Half a
 millennium after their abandonment, former occupied places from the inner
 Guiana Shield still bear noticeable differences with non-anthropized
 places. Considering the lack of data concerning archeology of terra firme
 Amazonian forests, our results suggest that pre-Columbian influences on
 the structure (lower current biomass), diversity (higher beta diversity)
 and composition (linked to the past human tree uses) of current Amazonian
 forests might be more important than previously thought.

title: Data from: Effectiveness of modern leaf analysis tools for the morpho-ecological study of plants: the case of Primula albenensis Banfi et Ferl

description: Scientific and technological progress has led to the creation of analysis
 tools that have revolutionized traditional studies of morphology and plant
 ecology. Recent methods and tools which, on the basis of leaf samples,
 allow the development of geometric morphometric analyses and the
 evaluation of functional strategy are good examples. These methods, still
 little used, have never been applied on the same leaf samples to obtain
 information on their morphometry and on the ecology of the plants at the
 same time. This article discusses the effectiveness of modern leaf
 analysis tools for geometric morphometrics (outline analysis) and studies
 of functional strategies based on the competitor-stress tolerator-ruderal
 (CSR) scheme, using a study of a steno-endemic plant of the Alps, Primula
 albenensis Banfi et Ferl. as an example. These aspects were analyzed using
 the same leaf samples collected in the only two areas where this species
 grows. CSR analyses revealed that P. albenensis is not a stress-tolerant
 species (C:S:R = 37:1:62), as previously thought. Moreover, no significant
 intraspecific differences emerged as regards functional strategy. Instead,
 outline analysis highlighted a significant difference (p &lt; 0.001)
 between the leaves collected in the two sampling areas which differ mainly
 in the width of the leaf blade and petiole. The results of this study and
 others reported in the literature therefore suggest that these modern
 methods of leaf analysis are cheap, effective and relatively simple to
 perform. Furthermore, researchers are able to carry out geometric
 morphometric and CSR analysis using the same samples of leaves in order to
 maximize the information content provided by the analysis of plant
 material which is sometimes not easily available.

title: Data from: Opening the black box of plant nutrient uptake under warming predicts global patterns in community biomass and biological carbon storage

description: The effect of climate change on the amount of carbon stored in the
 different biological compartments of complex natural communities is
 relevant for a range of ecosystem functions and services.
 Temperature-dependency of many physiological and ecological processes
 drives this storage capacity. As opposed to other physiological rates, the
 temperature-dependence of nutrient uptake by plants has, to date, not been
 thoroughly investigated and therefore was not explicitly included in food
 web models. In a meta-study, we extracted experimental data to establish
 the temperature-dependence of the parameters determining plant nutrient
 uptake. Overall, we found an increase in the maximum uptake rate, as well
 as the half-saturation density. As the respiration rates of plants
 (biomass loss) increase more strongly than the nutrient uptake rates
 (driving biomass gain under nutrient limitation), our results suggest that
 warming should decrease plant biomass. We applied these
 temperature-dependent nutrient uptake rates by plants to a model of a
 three-level food-chain composed of two nutrients, a plant pool, and an
 herbivore pool. Having established plant nutrient uptake rates based on
 real data to replace the previously used assumption of logistic growth, we
 were able to use realistic natural nutrient deposition rates as the input
 variables in this model. This mechanistic model approach allowed us to
 show the quantitative responses of natural communities to realistic
 fertilization rates for the first time. We ran the model under realistic
 nutrient supply scenarios based on deposition data from the literature,
 adding a scenario of anthropogenic fertilization. We found decreases in
 overall community biomass with increasing temperature, but the intensity
 of this decrease varied strongly depending on the nutrient supply
 scenario. Our findings highlight the importance of including other global
 change drivers besides warming, as they can mediate the temperature impact
 on changes in global carbon storage and thus biomass-related ecosystem
 services.

title: Data from: Evolution of resource specialisation in competitive metacommunities

description: Spatial environmental heterogeneity coupled with dispersal can promote
 ecological persistence of diverse metacommunities. Does this premise hold
 when metacommunities evolve? Using a 2-resource competition model, we
 studied the evolution of resource-uptake specialization as a function of
 resource type (substitutable to essential) and shape of the trade-off
 between resource uptake affinities (generalist- to specialist-favoring).
 In spatially homogeneous environments, evolutionarily stable coexistence
 of consumers is only possible for sufficiently substitutable resources and
 specialist-favoring trade-offs. Remarkably, these same conditions yield
 comparatively low diversity in heterogeneous environments, because they
 promote sympatric evolution of two opposite resource specialists that,
 together, monopolize the two resources everywhere. Consumer diversity is
 instead maximized for intermediate trade-offs and clearly substitutable or
 clearly essential resources, where evolved metacommunities are
 characterized by contrasting selection regimes. Taken together, our
 results present new insights on resource-competition-mediated
 evolutionarily-stable diversity in homogeneous and heterogeneous
 environments, which should be applicable to a wide range of systems.

title: Data from: The loss of functional diversity: a detrimental influence of landscape-scale deforestation on tree reproductive traits

description: 1. Agricultural activities such as crop production and cattle ranching are
 rapidly replacing forests worldwide, especially in the tropics. Resulting
 forest loss can adversely affect biodiversity in many ways, including
 trajectories of community reassembly, community composition, forest
 structural profiles, and taxonomic diversity. Yet, effects of forest loss
 on specific ecosystem functions remain limited. Processes closely linked
 with tree reproduction, such as pollination and seed dispersal are of
 paramount importance for many ecological functions in tropical forests.
 Disruption in these processes is known to delay or change forest
 regeneration, diversity, and structural dynamics. 2. To explore how
 reproductive and dispersal traits are being altered by landscape-scale
 deforestation, we surveyed and compiled trait data for tree communities in
 20 tropical Atlantic rainforest remnants in northeastern Brazil, across a
 gradient of deforested landscapes, each retaining 3 to 93% forest cover.
 3. The functional richness of reproductive plant attributes decreased as
 the amount of forest cover decreased, while divergence increased along the
 same gradient. Loss of forest cover disproportionately affected certain
 dispersal and reproductive attributes, with most heavily impacted
 functional attributes including: brief flowering duration, hermaphrodite
 sexual system, and zoochoric dispersal mode. We identified a clear
 threshold at 25-30% of forest cover, below which, reproductive attributes
 disappeared more quickly than expect from forest remnants. 4. Synthesis.
 Deforestation may impair tree community functional diversity, particularly
 by decreasing the number of functions and increasing certain functional
 reproductive attributes that are particularly successful in disturbed
 habitats. Under scenarios of extensive deforestation, changes to
 reproductive and dispersal trait profile of forest communities suggest
 that profound modifications in the availability of floral and seed
 resources are likely to be substantial. Such extensive changes to food
 supply of pollinating and dispersing animals suggest carry-over effects to
 the fauna of these important forest systems.

title: Data from: Genetic structure of Omani goats reveals admixture among populations from geographically proximal sites

description: The genetic diversity of most global goat populations has been assessed in
 recent decades using nuclear markers but remains unstudied in the south
 Arabian Peninsula, particularly in Sultanate of Oman, despite the
 importance of these animals for the local economy and food supply.
 Therefore, the present study provides a comparative analysis of the
 genetic diversity of five native Omani goat populations and evaluates
 possible admixture rates with the four most frequently imported goat
 populations from geographically proximal countries. Quality control of 15
 loci was conducted and molecular characterization of nine populations was
 performed with 11 microsatellite markers. Accordingly, a data set based on
 11 high informative microsatellites loci genotypes from nine populations
 was used to estimate the population genetic parameters. The summary
 statistics for the parameters depicted relatively highly diverse
 populations (Ho = 0.667, He = 0.663) with relatively low and mostly
 non-significant levels of inbreeding (FIS). Furthermore, the population
 substructure estimators (AMOVA) and population differentiation coefficient
 (FST) were indicated weak genetic differentiation among populations (P
 &lt; 0.001).A finer analysis of the population substructure and
 differentiation using STRUCTURE, discriminant analyses of principal
 components (DAPCs) and a neighbor-joining (NJ) tree were supported a
 scenario that a high level of gene flow between populations from close
 geographical locations are the main evolutionary driving force. Thus, any
 future conservation strategy and breeding programs should include to
 preserve unique alleles that might be contributing to with stand the
 limited feed and requirement in desert ecosystems as well as economic
 traits.

title: Data from: Local parasite pressures and host genotype modulate epigenetic diversity in a mixed-mating fish

description: Parasite-mediated selection is one of the main drivers of genetic
 variation in natural populations. The persistence of long-term
 self-fertilization, however, challenges the notion that low genetic
 variation and inbreeding compromise the host’s ability to respond to
 pathogens. DNA methylation represents a potential mechanism for generating
 additional adaptive variation under low genetic diversity. We compared
 genetic diversity (microsatellites and AFLPs), variation in DNA
 methylation (MSAFLPs), and parasite loads in three populations of
 Kryptolebias hermaphroditus, a unique mixed-mating (partially
 self-fertilising) fish, to analyse the potential adaptive value of DNA
 methylation in relation to genetic diversity and parasite loads. We found
 strong genetic population structuring, as well as differences in parasite
 loads and methylation levels among sampling sites and selfing lineages.
 Globally, the interaction between parasites and inbreeding with selfing
 lineages influenced DNA methylation, but parasites seemed more important
 in determining methylation levels at the local scale.
