title: Data from: Thermoregulatory windows in Darwin's finches

description: 1. Darwin’s finches have been the focus of intense study demonstrating how
 climatic fluctuations coupled with resource competition drive the
 evolution of a variety of bill sizes and shapes. The bill, as other
 peripheral surfaces, also plays an important role in thermoregulation in
 numerous bird species. The avian bill is vascularized, while limbs have
 specialized vasculature that facilitate heat loss or heat conservation
 (i.e., they are thermoregulatory windows). 2. The Galápagos Islands, home
 to Darwin’s finches, have a hot and relatively dry climate for
 approximately half of the year, during which thermoregulatory windows
 (i.e. surfaces) could be important for thermoregulation and the linked
 challenge of water balance. 3. We hypothesized that Darwin’s finch bills
 have evolved in part for their role in thermoregulation, possibly
 co-opted, following adaptation for other functions, such as foraging. We
 predicted that bills of Darwin’s finches are effective thermoregulatory
 windows, and that species differences in bill morphology, along with
 physiology and behavior, lead to differences in thermoregulatory function.
 4. To test these hypotheses, we conducted a field study to assess heat
 exchange and microclimate use in three ground finch species and sympatric
 cactus finch (Geospiza spp.). We collected thermal images of free-living
 birds during a hot and dry season and recorded microclimate data for each
 observation. We used individual thermographic data to model the
 contribution of bills, legs, and bodies to overall heat balance and
 compared surface temperatures to those from dead birds to test
 physiological control of heat loss from these surfaces. We derived and
 compared species-specific threshold environmental temperatures, which are
 indicative of a species’ thermally neutral temperature. 5. In all species,
 the bill surface was an effective heat dissipater during naturally
 occurring warm temperatures. As expected, we found that finches controlled
 surface temperatures through physiology and that young birds had higher
 surface temperatures than adults. Larger bills contributed proportionally
 more to overall heat loss than smaller bills. 6. We demonstrate here that
 related, sympatric species with different bill sizes exhibit different
 patterns in the use of these thermoregulatory structures, supporting a
 role for thermoregulation in the evolution and ecology of Darwin’s finch
 morphology.

title: Data from: Variation in defence strategies in the metal hyperaccumulator Noccaea caerulescens is indicative of synergies and trade-offs between forms of defence

description: The metal hyperaccumulator, N. caerulescens, uses metals as a defence
 against pathogens. Earlier work has suggested both trade-offs and
 synergies between metals and inducible defences. Different populations of
 N. caerulescens vary in metal accumulation. Here, we test the hypothesis
 that this produces different outcomes in trade-offs between defences. We
 compare zinc concentrations, glucosinolate concentrations, and inducible
 stress responses, including ROS and cell death, in four N. caerulescens
 populations, and relate these to the growth of the plant pathogen
 Pseudomonas syringae, its zinc tolerance mutants, and Pseudomonas
 pathogens isolated from a natural population of N. caerulescens. The
 populations display strikingly different defences. Where defences are
 successful, pathogens are limited primarily by metals, cell death, or
 organic defences, with evidence of both trade-offs and synergies between
 these, depending upon population. In addition, we find evidence that
 Pseudomonas pathogens may evolve to overcome any of these strategies,
 indicating that the arms race continues. These data indicate that
 defensive enhancement, joint effects and trade-offs between forms of
 defence are all plausible explanations for the evolution of metal-based
 defences, with factors including metal availability and pressures from
 metal-tolerant pathogens likely shaping the current strategy of each
 ecotype.

title: Data from: Distribution of alien animal species richness in the Czech Republic

description: Biogeographical barriers formed by natural forces over billions of years
 have been substantially disrupted by human activity, particularly in
 recent centuries. In response to these anthropogenic changes, global
 homogenization of biota is observed at an ever‐increasing rate, causing
 environmental and economic losses as well as emerging health risks.
 Identifying factors underlying alien species richness is essential for
 prevention of future introductions and subsequent spread. In this study,
 we examined the effects of environmental and human‐related factors on
 distribution of alien animal species richness in the Czech Republic
 (Central Europe). We compiled a set of maps showing the level of invasion
 of six categories of alien animal species in each of 628 grid cells (ca.
 12.0 × 11.1 km) covering the Czech Republic.
 Relationships between alien species richness and 12 variables
 characterizing climatic conditions, topography, land cover, and human
 population size were calculated using the generalized least squares
 method. Species richness of all alien species, of invertebrates, and of
 terrestrial species showed the strongest positive relationship with mean
 annual temperature, while the number of black and grey (proposed prominent
 invaders) and aquatic species was most closely related to the presence of
 large rivers. Alien vertebrates showed a strong negative relationship with
 annual precipitation. The highest alien animal species richness was found
 in and near large population centers and in agricultural landscapes in
 warm and dry lowlands. The gateways for alien aquatic species are rather
 large rivers over sport fishing and aquaculture import. Compiled maps
 create a powerful visual communication tool, useful in development of
 programs to prevent future introductions.

title: Data from: Genetic variation at aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) loci in populations of Atlantic killifish (Fundulus heteroclitus) inhabiting polluted and reference habitats

description: Background: The non-migratory killifish Fundulus heteroclitus inhabits
 clean and polluted environments interspersed throughout its range along
 the Atlantic coast of North America. Several populations of this species
 have successfully adapted to environments contaminated with toxic aromatic
 hydrocarbon pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Previous
 studies suggest that the mechanism of resistance to these and other
 “dioxin-like compounds” (DLCs) may involve reduced signaling through the
 aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) pathway. Here we investigated gene
 diversity and evidence for positive selection at three AHR-related loci
 (AHR1, AHR2, AHRR) in F. heteroclitus by comparing alleles from seven
 locations ranging over 600 km along the northeastern US, including
 extremely polluted and reference estuaries, with a focus on New Bedford
 Harbor (MA, USA), a PCB Superfund site, and nearby reference sites.
 Results: We identified 98 single nucleotide polymorphisms within three
 AHR-related loci among all populations, including synonymous and
 nonsynonymous substitutions. Haplotype distributions were spatially
 segregated and F-statistics suggested strong population genetic structure
 at these loci, consistent with previous studies showing strong population
 genetic structure at other F. heteroclitus loci. Genetic diversity at
 these three loci was not significantly different in contaminated sites as
 compared to reference sites. However, for AHR2 the New Bedford Harbor
 population had significant FST values in comparison to the nearest
 reference populations. Tests for positive selection revealed ten
 nonsynonymous polymorphisms in AHR1 and four in AHR2. Four nonsynonymous
 SNPs in AHR1 and three in AHR2 showed large differences in base frequency
 between New Bedford Harbor and its reference site. Tests for
 isolation-by-distance revealed evidence for non-neutral change at the AHR2
 locus. Conclusion: Together, these data suggest that F. heteroclitus
 populations in reference and polluted sites have similar genetic
 diversity, providing no evidence for strong genetic bottlenecks for
 populations in polluted locations. However, the data provide evidence for
 genetic differentiation among sites, selection at specific nucleotides in
 AHR1 and AHR2, and specific AHR2 SNPs and haplotypes that are associated
 with the PCB-resistant phenotype in the New Bedford Harbor population. The
 results suggest that AHRs, and especially AHR2, may be important,
 recurring targets for selection in local adaptation to dioxin-like
 aromatic hydrocarbon contaminants.

title: Data from: Global population structure and demographic history of the grey seal

description: Although the grey seal Halichoerus grypus is one of the most familiar and
 intensively studied of all pinniped species, its global population
 structure remains to be elucidated. Little is also known about how the
 species as a whole may have historically responded to climate-driven
 changes in habitat availability and anthropogenic exploitation. We
 therefore analysed samples from over 1500 individuals collected from 22
 colonies spanning the Western and Eastern Atlantic and the Baltic Sea
 regions, represented by 350bp of the mitochondrial hypervariable region
 and up to nine microsatellites. Strong population structure was observed
 at both types of marker, and highly asymmetrical patterns of gene flow
 were also inferred, with the Orkney islands being identified as a source
 of emigrants to other areas in the Eastern Atlantic. The Baltic and
 Eastern Atlantic regions were estimated to have diverged a little over
 10,000 years ago, consistent with the last proposed isolation of the
 Baltic Sea. Approximate Bayesian computation also identified genetic
 signals consistent with postglacial population expansion across much of
 the species range, suggesting that grey seals are highly responsive to
 changes in habitat availability.

title: Data from: Spatially varying selection shapes life history clines among populations of Drosophila melanogaster from sub-Saharan Africa

description: Clines in life history traits, presumably driven by spatially varying
 selection, are widespread. Major latitudinal clines have been observed,
 for example, in Drosophila melanogaster, an ancestrally tropical insect
 from Africa that has colonized temperate habitats on multiple continents.
 Yet, how geographic factors other than latitude, such as altitude or
 longitude, affect life history in this species remains poorly understood.
 Moreover, most previous work has been performed on derived European,
 American and Australian populations, but whether life history also varies
 predictably with geography in the ancestral Afro-tropical range has not
 been investigated systematically. Here, we have examined life history
 variation among populations of D. melanogaster from sub-Saharan Africa.
 Viability and reproductive diapause did not vary with geography, but body
 size increased with altitude, latitude and longitude. Early fecundity
 covaried positively with altitude and latitude, whereas lifespan showed
 the opposite trend. Examination of genetic variance–covariance matrices
 revealed geographic differentiation also in trade-off structure, and
 QST-FST analysis showed that life history differentiation among
 populations is likely shaped by selection. Together, our results suggest
 that geographic and/or climatic factors drive adaptive phenotypic
 differentiation among ancestral African populations and confirm the widely
 held notion that latitude and altitude represent parallel gradients.

title: Data from: Social and environmental impacts of forest management certification in Indonesia

description: In response to unsustainable timber production in tropical forest
 concessions, voluntary forest management certification programs such as
 the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) have been introduced to improve
 environmental, social, and economic performance over existing management
 practices. However, despite the proliferation of forest certification over
 the past two decades, few studies have evaluated its effectiveness. Using
 temporally and spatially explicit village-level data on environmental and
 socio-economic indicators in Kalimantan (Indonesia), we evaluate the
 performance of the FSC-certified timber concessions compared to
 non-certified logging concessions. Employing triple difference matching
 estimators, we find that between 2000 and 2008 FSC reduced aggregate
 deforestation by 5 percentage points and the incidence of air pollution by
 31%. It had no statistically significant impacts on fire incidence or core
 areas, but increased forest perforation by 4 km2 on average. In addition,
 we find that FSC reduced firewood dependence (by 33%), respiratory
 infections (by 32%) and malnutrition (by 1 person) on average. By
 conducting a rigorous statistical evaluation of FSC certification in a
 biodiversity hotspot such as Indonesia, we provide a reference point and
 offer methodological and data lessons that could aid the design of ongoing
 and future evaluations of a potentially critical conservation policy.

title: Data from: Recurrent fruit harvesting reduces seedling density but increases the frequency of clonal reproduction in a tropical tree

description: Studies on the ecological impacts of non-timber forest products (NTFP)
 harvest reveal that plants are often more resilient to fruit and seed
 harvest than to bark and root harvest. Several studies indicate that
 sustainable fruit harvesting limits can be set very high (&gt;80%
 fruit harvesting intensity). For species with clonal and sexual
 reproduction, understanding how fruit harvest affects clonal reproduction
 can shed light on the genetic risks and sustainability of NTFP harvest. We
 studied 18 populations of a gallery forest tree, Pentadesma butyracea
 (Clusiaceae), to test the impact of fruits harvest, climate and habitat
 size (gallery forest width) on the frequency of sexual or clonal
 recruitment in Benin, West Africa. We sampled populations in two
 ecological regions (Sudanian and Sudano-Guinean) and in each region, we
 selected sites with low, moderate and high fruit harvesting intensities.
 These populations were selected in gallery forests with varying width to
 sample the natural variation in P. butyracea habitat size. Heavily
 harvested populations produced significantly less seedlings but had the
 highest density and proportion of clonal offspring. Our study suggests
 that for plant species with dual reproductive strategy (via seeds and
 clonal), fruit harvesting and associated disturbances that come with it
 can lead to an increase in the proportion of clonal offspring. This raises
 the issue that excessive fruit harvest by increasing the proportion of
 clonal offspring to the detriment of seed originated offspring may lead to
 a reduction in genetic diversity with consequence on harvested species
 capability to withstand environmental stochasticity.

title: Data from: Colony stage and not facultative policing explains pattern of worker reproduction in the Saxon wasp

description: Inclusive fitness theory predicts that in colonies of social Hymenoptera
 headed by a multiple mated queen, workers should benefit from policing
 eggs laid by other workers. Foster & Ratnieks (2000) provided
 evidence that in the vespine wasp Dolichovespula saxonica, workers police
 other workers' eggs only in colonies headed by a multiple mated
 queen, but not in those headed by a single mated one. This conclusion,
 however, was based on a relatively small sample size and the original
 study did not control for possible confounding variables such as the
 seasonal colony progression of the nests. Our aim, therefore, was to
 reinvestigate whether or not facultative worker policing occurs in D.
 saxonica. Remarkably, our data shows that in the studied Danish
 population, there was no correlation between worker-worker relatedness and
 the percentage of worker-derived males. In addition, we show that
 variability in cuticular hydrocarbon profiles among the workers did not
 significantly correlate with relatedness, and that workers therefore
 probably did not have sufficient information on queen mating frequency
 from the workers’ cuticular hydrocarbon profiles. Hence, there was no
 evidence that workers facultatively policed other workers' eggs in
 response to queen mating frequency. Nevertheless, our data do show that
 the seasonal progression of the nest and the location in which the males
 were reared both explain the patterns of worker reproduction found.
 Overall, our results suggest that the earlier evidence for facultative
 worker policing in D. saxonica may have been due to accidental
 correlations with certain confounding variables, or, alternatively, that
 there are large interpopulation differences in the expression of worker
 policing.
