title: Data from: Translation, cross-cultural adaptation and validation of the traditional Chinese intermittent and constant osteoarthritis pain (ICOAP) questionnaire for knee osteoarthritis

description: Objectives: To translate and culturally adapt the Intermittent and
 Constant Osteoarthritis and Pain (ICOAP) measure to a traditional Chinese
 version, and to study its psychometric properties in patients with knee
 osteoarthritis (KOA). Method: The ICOAP was translated and
 cross-culturally adapted into traditional Chinese according to the
 recommended international guidelines. A total of 110 participants with KOA
 in Hong Kong were invited to complete the traditional Chinese ICOAP
 (tChICOAP), the Chinese Western Ontario and McMaster Universities
 Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain subscale, and the Chinese Short form of
 Health Survey (SF-12v2). Psychometric evaluations included content
 validity, construct validity, internal consistency, and test and re-test
 reliability. Results: All participants completed the tChICOAP
 questionnaire without missing items. The content validity index of all
 items ranged from 80 to 100%. The tChICOAP total pain and subscale scores
 had excellent internal consistency with Cronbach’s alpha value ranged from
 0.869 to 0.948, and good corrected item-total subscale correlations. It
 had high test and re-test reliability (intra-class correlations
 0.924-0.960). The tChICOAP constant, intermittent, and total pain scores
 correlated strongly with the WOMAC pain subscale (r= 0.671, 0.678 and
 0.707 respectively, p &lt; 0.001). The tChICOAP intermittent and total
 scores correlate strongly with SF-12v2 physical component score (r =-0.590
 and -0.558 respectively, p &lt; 0.001). Conclusions: The tChICOAP is a
 reliable and valid instrument to measure the pain experience of Chinese
 patients with KOA.

title: Data from: Cortical recruitment determines learning dynamics and strategy

description: Salience is a broad and widely used concept in neuroscience whose neuronal
 correlates, however, remain elusive. In behavioral conditioning, salience
 is used to explain various effects, such as stimulus overshadowing, and
 refers to how fast and strongly a stimulus can be associated with a
 conditioned event. Here, we identify sounds of equal intensity and
 perceptual detectability, which due to their spectro-temporal content
 recruit different levels of population activity in mouse auditory cortex.
 When using these sounds as cues in a Go/NoGo discrimination task, the
 degree of cortical recruitment matches the salience parameter of a
 reinforcement learning model used to analyze learning speed. We test an
 essential prediction of this model by training mice to discriminate
 light-sculpted optogenetic activity patterns in auditory cortex, and
 verify that cortical recruitment causally determines association or
 overshadowing of the stimulus components. This demonstrates that cortical
 recruitment underlies major aspects of stimulus salience during
 reinforcement learning.

title: Data from: Nathusius' bats optimize long-distance migration by flying at maximum range speed.

description: Metabolic rate of 12 Pipistrellus nathusii in relation to varying
 airspeed. We measured the metabolic rate of flying bats in a wind tunnel
 using the 13C labeled Na-bicarbonate method. The relationship between
 metabolic rate and airspeed was U-shaped in the majority of individuals.
 We could not find a U-shaped curve in a few individuals that engaged in
 flight manoeuvers, including landing. We used the shape of the U-shaped
 power curve to estimate minimum flight speed and maximum range speed for
 the study species. Further we present data on migration speed (n=37) and
 foraging flight speed (n=40) in wild Pipistrellus nathusii at a major
 miratory corridor in Latvia.

title: Data from: Conflict within species determines the value of a mutualism between species

description: Mutually beneficial interactions between species play a key role in
 maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem function. Nevertheless, such
 mutualisms can erode into antagonistic interactions. One explanation is
 that the fitness costs and benefits of interacting with a partner species
 vary among individuals. However, it is unclear why such variation exists.
 Here we demonstrate that social behaviour within species plays an
 important, though hitherto overlooked, role in determining the relative
 fitness to be gained from interacting with a second species. By combining
 laboratory experiments with field observations, we report that conflict
 within burying beetles Nicrophorus vespilloides influences the fitness
 that can be gained from interacting with the mite Poecilochirus carabi.
 Beetles transport these mites to carrion, upon which both species breed.
 We show that mites help beetles win intraspecific contests for this scarce
 resource: mites raise beetle body temperature, which enhances beetle
 competitive prowess. However, mites confer this benefit only upon smaller
 beetles, which are otherwise condemned by their size to lose contests for
 carrion. Larger beetles need no assistance to win a carcass and then lose
 reproductive success when breeding alongside mites. Thus the extent of
 mutualism is dependent on an individual’s inability to compete
 successfully and singlehandedly with conspecifics. Mutualisms degrade into
 antagonism when interactions with a partner species start to yield a net
 fitness loss, rather than a net fitness gain. This study suggests that
 interactions with conspecifics determine where this tipping point lies.

title: Data from: Lethal and sublethal synergistic effects of a new systemic pesticide, flupyradifurone (Sivanto®) on honey bees

description: The honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) is an important pollinator and a model
 for pesticide effects on insect pollinators. The effects of agricultural
 pesticides on honey bee health have therefore raised concern. Bees can be
 exposed to multiple pesticides that may interact synergistically,
 amplifying their side-effects. Attention has focused on neonicotinoid
 pesticides, but flupyradifurone (FPF) is a novel butenolide insecticide
 that is also systemic and a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR)
 agonist. We therefore tested the lethal and sublethal toxic effects of FPF
 over different seasons and worker types, and the interaction of FPF with a
 common SBI fungicide, propiconazole. We provide the first demonstration of
 adverse synergistic effects on bee survival and behaviour (poor
 coordination, hyperactivity, apathy) at field-realistic doses. Pesticide
 effects were significantly influenced by worker type and season. Foragers
 were consistently more susceptible to these pesticides (4-fold greater
 effect) than in-hive bees, and both worker types were more strongly
 affected by FPF in summer as compared to spring. Because risk assessment
 requires relatively limited tests that only marginally address bee
 behaviour and do not consider the influence of bee age and season, our
 results raise concerns about the safety of approved pesticides, including
 FPF. We suggest that pesticide risk assessment also test for common
 chemical mixture synergies on behaviour and survival.

title: Data from: Foliar-feeding insects acquire microbiomes from the soil rather than the host plant

description: Microbiomes of soils and plants are linked, but how this affects
 microbiomes of aboveground herbivorous insects is unknown. We first
 generated plant-conditioned soils in field plots, then reared leaf-feeding
 caterpillars on dandelion grown in these soils, and then assessed whether
 the microbiomes of the caterpillars were attributed to the conditioned
 soil microbiomes or the dandelion microbiome. Microbiomes of caterpillars
 kept on intact plants differed from those of caterpillars fed detached
 leaves collected from plants growing in the same soil. Microbiomes of
 caterpillars reared on detached leaves were relatively simple and
 resembled leaf microbiomes, while those of caterpillars from intact plants
 were more diverse and resembled soil microbiomes. Plant-mediated changes
 in soil microbiomes were not reflected in the phytobiome but were detected
 in caterpillar microbiomes, however, only when kept on intact plants. Our
 results imply that insect microbiomes depend on soil microbiomes, and that
 effects of plants on soil microbiomes can be transmitted to aboveground
 insects feeding later on other plants.

title: Data from: Disrupting information alters the response to a signal trait in both sexes of Nicrophorus beetles

description: Effective signals transfer information in a way that enhances the fitness
 of the sender. Signal traits are often sexually dimorphic. However, in
 some species males and females display similar signals, and these mutual
 signals are less often studied. Competition for resources occurs in both
 males and females, and mate choice is likely to occur whenever mates vary
 in quality and reproductive investment is high. Nicrophorus burying
 beetles compete intrasexually over the carrion resources on which they
 biparentally raise their young. Nicrophorus species also often have
 clypeal membranes which scale hyperallometrically with body size,
 exaggerating the apparent body size of larger individuals. To examine the
 potential signaling function of clypeal membranes, we examined the
 behavioral responses of male and female Nicrophorus orbicollis and N.
 pustulatus burying beetles to same- and opposite-sex social partners which
 had their membranes painted black or clear. We found evidence that
 blocking the information in clypeal membranes affected intrasexual
 aggressive interactions for both sexes of both species. Blocking a
 female’s signal reduced the likelihood of mating attempts for male N.
 pustulatus, whilst blocking a male’s signal influenced female rejection
 behaviors in N. orbicollis. Our results show that males and females can
 experience similar selection pressures, and suggest that examining mutual
 signals in a broader range of systems will expand our understanding of
 evolutionary differences and similarities between the sexes.

title: Data from: Assessing the effects of human activities on the foraging opportunities of migratory shorebirds in Austral high-latitude bays

description: Human presence at intertidal areas could impact coastal biodiversity,
 including migratory waterbird species and the ecosystem services they
 provide. Assessing this impact is therefore essential to develop
 management measures compatible with migratory processes and associated
 biodiversity. Here, we assess the effects of human presence on the
 foraging opportunities of Hudsonian godwits (Limosa haemastica, a
 trans-hemispheric migratory shorebird) during their non-breeding season on
 Chiloé Island, southern Chile. We compared bird density and time spent
 foraging in two similar bays with contrasting disturbance levels: human
 presence (mostly seaweed harvesters accompanied by dogs) was on average
 0.9±0.4 people per 10 ha in the disturbed bay, whereas it was negligible
 (95% days absent) in the non-disturbed bay. Although overall abundances
 were similar between bays, godwit density was higher in the non-disturbed
 bay throughout the low tide period. Both days after the start of the
 non-breeding season and tidal height significantly affected godwit
 density, with different effects in either bay. Time spent foraging was
 significantly higher in the non-disturbed bay (86.5±1.1%) than in the
 disturbed one (81.3±1.4%). As expected, godwit density significantly
 decreased with the number of people and accompanying dogs in the disturbed
 bay. Our results indicate that even a low density of people and dogs can
 significantly reduce the foraging opportunities of shorebirds. These
 constraints, coupled with additional flushing costs, may negatively affect
 godwits’ pre-migratory fattening. Hence, as a first step we suggest
 limiting human presence within bays on Chiloé to 1 person per 10 ha and
 banning the presence of accompanying dogs in sensitive conservation areas.

title: Data from: The effect of host condition on adult emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis) performance

description: For invasive species, how successful adult insects are in various life
 history processes influences how well invaders can colonize and reproduce.
 Emerald ash borer (EAB) is a significant invasive forest insect in North
 America that has killed millions of ash trees. While the effect of host
 condition on larval performance has been examined, the effect of host
 condition on adult performance has not. In this study, healthy trees were
 girdled to simulate poor host condition and then both artificially and
 naturally infested by EAB. The ensuing adults that developed and emerged
 were then assessed for their success in terms of number, lifespan, size,
 mating success and fecundity. Girdling reduced the number of insects that
 emerged from trees, and was associated with reduced lifespan, but had
 confounding effects on mating success and fecundity. Adult size was
 positively affected by girdling but negatively affected by crowding that
 larvae experienced during development. This suggests that it is not
 necessary to consider host condition when assessing the risk of EAB, as
 the dynamics of populations attacking poor-condition trees will be the
 same as the dynamics populations attacking healthy trees.

title: Data from: A trait-based approach to plant species selection to increase functionality of farmland vegetative strips

description: Farmland vegetative strips are a proven source of support for ecosystem
 services and are globally used to mitigate effects of agricultural
 intensification. However, increasing pressures on agricultural land
 require increases in their functionality, such as supporting multiple
 ecosystem services concurrently. The plant species sown in a vegetative
 strip seed mix determine the establishment, plant community, and ecosystem
 services that are supported. Currently, there is no clearly defined or
 structured method to select plant species for multifunctional vegetative
 strips. Plant traits determine how plants support ecosystem services.
 Also, the establishment and persistence of plant communities is influenced
 by key internal and external factors. We propose a novel,
 evidence‐informed method of multifunctional vegetative strip design based
 on these essential traits and factors. This study had three distinct
 stages. The first identified plant traits that support water quality
 protection, pollinators and/or crop pest natural enemies, using existing
 research evidence. We then identified key factors affecting plant
 community establishment and persistence. Finally, we applied these
 standardized methods to design a multifunctional vegetative strip for a
 specific case study (UK lowland farmland). Key plant traits identified,
 included floral display size, flower color, nectar content, leaf surface
 area, leaf trichome density, percentage fine roots, root length, rooting
 depth, and root density. Key internal and external establishment factors
 included life history, native status, distribution, established
 competitive strategy, associated floristic diversity, flowering time and
 duration, and preferred soil type and pH. In the United Kingdom case
 study, we used five different plant traits and all of the identified
 factors to design a seed mix for a multifunctional vegetative strip. We
 present a transferable method of vegetative strip design that can be
 adapted for other ecosystem services and climates. It provides landowners
 and advisors with an evidence‐informed approach to increase field margin
 functionality while supporting farmland biodiversity.

title: Data from: Leaf shape tracks transitions across forest-grassland boundaries in the grass family (Poaceae)

description: Grass leaf shape is a strong indicator of their habitat. Linear leaves
 predominate in open areas and more ovate leaves distinguish
 forest-associated grasses. This pattern among extant species suggests that
 ancestral shifts between forest and open habitats may have coincided with
 changes in leaf shape or size. We tested relationships between habitat,
 climate, photosynthetic pathway and leaf shape and size in a phylogenetic
 framework to evaluate drivers of leaf shape and size variation over the
 evolutionary history of the family. We also estimated the ancestral
 habitat of Poaceae and tested whether forest margins served as
 transitional zones for shifts between forests and grasslands. We found
 that grass leaf shape is converging towards different shape optima in the
 forest understory, forest margins and open habitats. Leaf size also varies
 with habitat. Grasses have smaller leaves in open and drier areas, and in
 areas with high solar irradiance. Direct transitions between linear and
 ovate leaves are rare as are direct shifts between forest and open
 habitats. The most likely ancestral habitat of the family was the forest
 understory and forest margins along with an intermediate leaf shape served
 as important transitional habitat and morphology respectively for
 subsequent shifts across forest-grassland biome boundaries.
