title: Data from: Steller’s jays assess and communicate about predator risk using detection cues and identity

description: Predators can vary in the risk they pose, depending upon the factors such
 as body size, maneuverability, hunting strategy, and diet. Prey can also
 detect predators with different senses, such as seeing, hearing, or
 smelling them. We presented wild Steller’s jays (Cyanocitta stelleri
 annectens) with visual cues (robotic raptors) or acoustic cues (call
 playbacks) of 4 different raptors to test how they assess risk and how
 this influences their alarm calls. The assessment of risk from different
 predator cues varied with different species of raptors: Jays responded to
 sharp-shinned hawks (Accipiter striatus) with an increase in latency to
 resume foraging regardless of whether they were seen or heard, whereas
 latency responses to northern goshawks (Accipiter gentilis) were longer if
 they were seen versus if they were heard. Furthermore, Steller’s jays
 altered the acoustic structure of their alarm calls depending on the
 species of raptor and whether they saw or heard them. These results
 demonstrate that Steller’s jay’s assessment of risk involves an
 interaction between predator identity and predator detection cue and in
 response, they alter their acoustically-simple alarm calls in surprisingly
 nuanced ways.

title: Data from: Influence of group size on the success of wolves hunting bison

description: An intriguing aspect of social foraging behaviour is that large groups are
 often no better at capturing prey than are small groups, a pattern that
 has been attributed to diminished cooperation (i.e., free riding) in large
 groups. Although this suggests the formation of large groups is unrelated
 to prey capture, little is known about cooperation in large groups that
 hunt hard-to-catch prey. Here, we used direct observations of Yellowstone
 wolves (Canis lupus) hunting their most formidable prey, bison (Bison
 bison), to test the hypothesis that large groups are more cooperative when
 hunting difficult prey. We quantified the relationship between capture
 success and wolf group size, and compared it to previously reported
 results for Yellowstone wolves hunting elk (Cervus elaphus), a prey that
 was, on average, 3 times easier to capture than bison. Whereas improvement
 in elk capture success levelled off at 2–6 wolves, bison capture success
 levelled off at 9–13 wolves with evidence that it continued to increase
 beyond 13 wolves. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that
 hunters in large groups are more cooperative when hunting more formidable
 prey. Improved ability to capture formidable prey could therefore promote
 the formation and maintenance of large predator groups, particularly among
 predators that specialize on such prey.

title: Data from: Short‐term insurance versus long‐term bet‐hedging strategies as adaptations to variable environments

description: Understanding how organisms adapt to environmental variation is a key
 challenge of biology. Central to this are bet-hedging strategies that
 maximize geometric mean fitness across generations, either by being
 conservative or diversifying phenotypes. Theoretical models have
 identified environmental variation across generations with multiplicative
 fitness effects as driving the evolution of bet-hedging. However,
 behavioral ecology has revealed adaptive responses to additive fitness
 effects of environmental variation within lifetimes, either through
 insurance or risk-sensitive strategies. Here we explore whether the
 effects of adaptive insurance interact with the evolution of bet-hedging
 by varying the position and skew of both arithmetic and geometric mean
 fitness functions. We find that insurance causes the optimal phenotype to
 shift from the peak to down the less steeply decreasing side of the
 fitness function, and that conservative bet-hedging produces an additional
 shift on top of this, which decreases as adaptive phenotypic variation
 from diversifying bet-hedging increases. When diversifying bet-hedging is
 not an option, environmental canalization to reduce phenotypic variation
 is almost always favored, except where the tails of the fitness function
 are steeply convex and produce a novel risk-sensitive increase in
 phenotypic variance akin to diversifying bet-hedging. Importantly, using
 skewed fitness functions, we provide the first model that explicitly
 addresses how conservative and diversifying bet-hedging strategies might
 coexist.

title: Data from: Conservation implications of a lack of relationship between baseline glucocorticoids and fitness in a wild passerine

description: The application of physiological measures to conservation monitoring has
 been gaining momentum and, while a suite of physiological traits are
 available to ascertain disturbance and condition in wildlife populations,
 glucocorticoids (i.e., GCs: cortisol and corticosterone) are the most
 heavily employed. The interpretation of GC levels as sensitive indicators
 of population change necessitates that GCs and metrics of population
 persistence are linked. However, the relationship between GCs and fitness
 may be highly context-dependent, changing direction, or significance,
 depending on the GC measure, fitness metric, life history stage, or other
 intrinsic and extrinsic contexts considered. We examined the relationship
 between baseline plasma corticosterone (CORT) levels measured at two
 periods of the breeding season and three metrics of fitness (offspring
 quality, reproductive output, and adult survival) in female tree swallows
 (Tachycineta bicolor). Specifically, we investigated whether: i) a
 relationship between baseline CORT metrics and fitness exists in our
 population; ii) whether the inclusion of energetic contexts such as food
 availability, reproductive investment, or body mass could alter or improve
 the strength of the relationship between CORT and fitness; iii) whether
 energetic contexts could better predict fitness compared to CORT metrics.
 Importantly, we investigated these relationships in both natural
 conditions and under an experimental manipulation of foraging
 profitability (feather clipping) to determine the influence of an
 environmental constraint on GC-fitness relationships. We found a lack of
 relationship between baseline CORT and both short- and long-term metrics
 of fitness in control and clipped birds. In contrast, loss in body mass
 over reproduction positively predicted reproductive output (number of
 chicks leaving the nest) in control birds; however, the relationship was
 characterized by a low R2 (5%), limiting the predictive capacity, and
 therefore the application potential, of such a measure in a conservation
 setting. Our results stress the importance of ground-truthing GC-fitness
 relationships and indicate that baseline GCs will likely not be easily
 employed as conservation biomarkers across many species and life history
 stages. Given the accumulating evidence of temporally-dynamic,
 inconsistent, and context-dependent GC-fitness relationships, placing
 effort towards directly measuring fitness traits, rather than plasma GC
 levels, will likely be more worthwhile for many conservation endeavours.

title: Data from: Loss of GD1-positive Lactobacillus correlates with inflammation in human lungs with COPD

description: Objectives: The present study assesses the relationship between contents
 of GD1 (glycerol dehydratase)-positive Lactobacillus, presence of
 Lactobacillus and the inflammatory response measured in host lung tissue
 in mild to moderate chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We
 hypothesise that there will be a loss of GD1 producing Lactobacillus with
 increasing severity of COPD and that GD1 has anti-inflammatory properties.
 Setting: Secondary care, 1 participating centre in Vancouver, British
 Columbia, Canada. Participants: 74 individuals who donated non-cancerous
 portions of their lungs or lobes removed as treatment for lung cancer
 (normal lung function controls (n=28), persons with mild (GOLD 1) (n=21)
 and moderate (GOLD 2) COPD (n=25)). Outcome measures: Primary outcome
 measure was GD1 positivity within each group and whether or not this
 impacted quantitative histological measures of lung inflammation.
 Secondary outcome measures included Lactobacillus presence and
 quantification, and quantitative histological measurements of inflammation
 and remodelling in early COPD. Results: Total bacterial count
 (p&gt;0.05) and prevalence of Lactobacillus (p&gt;0.05) did not
 differ between groups. However, the GD1 gene was detected more frequently
 in the controls (14%) than in either mild (5%) or moderate (0%) COPD
 (p&lt;0.05) samples. Macrophage and neutrophil volume fractions
 (0.012±0.005 (mean±SD) vs 0.026±0.017 and 0.005±0.002 vs 0.015±0.014,
 respectively) in peripheral lung tissue were reduced in samples positive
 for the GD1 gene (p&lt;0.0035). Conclusions: A reduction in GD1
 positivity is associated with an increased tissue immune inflammatory
 response in early stage COPD. There is potential for Lactobacillus to be
 used as a possible therapeutic, however, validation of these results need
 to be completed before an anti-inflammatory role of Lactobacillus in COPD
 can be confirmed.

title: Data from: Queen palm fruit selection and foraging techniques by squirrels in the Atlantic Forest

description: Palm fruits are a significant resource for fauna worldwide, particularly
 in tropical regions. Such is the case for queen palm seeds (Syagrus
 romanzoffiana), which is a vital source of nutrients for the squirrel
 Guerlinguetus ingrami. This squirrel acts as seed predator, as well as
 seed disperser of this important palm for the frugivore community, but we
 don´t know how this squirrel select and manipulate the queen palm seeds.
 The objective of this study was to address three key topics: (1)
 investigate the squirrel’s capacity to discern which of the fruit’s three
 pores is the germinal orifice, which permits a more efficient opening of
 the fruit; (2) assess whether the thickness and size of the fruit endocarp
 influence the squirrel’s selection during foraging; and (3) evaluate the
 intentionality of the rodents to prey on the invertebrates within the
 fruit. For this, we used behavioral experimentation techniques,
 controlling the predictor variables and observing the changes in the
 squirrel’s behavior. We found that (1) the squirrel identified the
 germinal pore by its greater depth relative to the other pores; (2) the
 size and thickness of the fruit not influences the squirrel’s choice; and
 (3) the squirrel prefers to consume fruits infested by invertebrates. The
 development of strategies to more efficiently open the queen palm fruit
 indicates the importance of this resource to the squirrels. In addition,
 due to the preference for invertebrates, the squirrel controls the
 population of these fruit parasites, providing a service to the population
 of palm trees.
description: Choose of fruits by
 squirrelsWe collected 30 fruits
 in each 25 palms (Syagrus romanzoffiana), inside four quadrats. We found
 out how many of these fruits had larvae inside and we put all of them back
 in their respective origin palms. We left these fruits available to
 squirrels for seven days. After this time, we counted how many fruits have
 left in each palm and how many fruits with larvae were
 removed.Larvae

title: Data from: Reconstructing phylogeny from reduced-representation genome sequencing data without assembly or alignment

description: Reduced-representation genome sequencing such as RADseq aids the analysis
 of genomes by reducing the quantity of data, thereby lowering both
 sequencing costs and computational burdens. RADseq was initially designed
 for studying genetic variation across genomes at the population level, but
 has also proved to be suitable for interspecific phylogeny reconstruction.
 RADseq data pose challenges for standard phylogenomic methods, however,
 due to incomplete coverage of the genome and large amounts of missing
 data. Alignment-free methods are both efficient and accurate for
 phylogenetic reconstructions with whole genomes and are especially
 practical for non-model organisms; nonetheless, alignment-free methods
 have not been applied with reduced genome sequencing data. Here, we test a
 full-genome assembly and alignment-free method, AAF, in application to
 RADseq data and propose two procedures for reads selection to remove reads
 from restriction sites that were not found in taxa being compared. We
 validate these methods using both simulations and real datasets. Reads
 selection improved the accuracy of phylogenetic construction in every
 simulated scenario and the two real datasets, making AAF as good or better
 than a comparable alignment-based method, even though AAF had much lower
 computational burdens. We also investigated the sources of missing data in
 RADseq and their effects on phylogeny reconstruction using AAF. The AAF
 pipeline modified for RADseq or other reduced-representation sequencing
 data, phyloRAD, is available on github
 (https://github.com/fanhuan/phyloRAD).

title: Data from: A female’s past experience with predators affects male courtship and the care her offspring will receive from their father

description: Differential allocation occurs when individuals adjust their reproductive
 investment based on their partner's traits. However, it remains
 unknown whether animals differentially allocate based on their
 partner's past experiences with predation risk. If animals can detect
 a potential mate’s experience with predators, this might inform them about
 the stress level of their potential mate, the likelihood of parental
 effects in offspring, and/or the dangers present in the environment. Using
 threespined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus), we examined whether a
 female’s previous experience with being chased by a model predator while
 yolking eggs affects male mating effort and offspring care. Males
 displayed fewer conspicuous courtship behaviours towards females that had
 experienced predation risk in the past compared to unexposed females. This
 differential allocation extended to how males cared for the resulting
 offspring of these matings: fathers provided less parental care to
 offspring of females that had experienced predation risk in the past. Our
 results show for the first time that variation among females in their
 predator encounters can contribute to behavioural variation among males in
 courtship and parental care, even when males themselves do not encounter a
 predator. These results, together with previous findings, suggest that
 maternal predator exposure can influence offspring development both
 directly and indirectly, through how it affects father care.

title: Data from: Modelling verbal aggression, physical aggression and inappropriate sexual behaviour after brain injury

description: Understanding the underpinnings of behavioural disturbances following
 brain injury is of considerable importance, but little at present is known
 about the relationships between different types of behavioural
 disturbances. Here, we take a novel approach to this issue by using
 confirmatory factor analysis to elucidate the architecture of verbal
 aggression, physical aggression and inappropriate sexual behaviour using
 systematic records made across an eight-week observation period for a
 large sample (n = 301) of individuals with a range of brain injuries. This
 approach offers a powerful test of the architecture of these behavioural
 disturbances by testing the fit between observed behaviours and different
 theoretical models. We chose models that reflected alternative theoretical
 perspectives based on generalized disinhibition (Model 1), a difference
 between aggression and inappropriate sexual behaviour (Model 2), or on the
 idea that verbal aggression, physical aggression and inappropriate sexual
 behaviour reflect broadly distinct but correlated clinical phenomena
 (Model 3). Model 3 provided the best fit to the data indicating that these
 behaviours can be viewed as distinct, but with substantial overlap. These
 data are important both for developing models concerning the architecture
 of behaviour as well as for clinical management in individuals with brain
 injury.

title: Data from: Ectoparasites increase swimming costs in a coral reef fish

description: Ectoparasites can reduce individual fitness by negatively affecting
 behavioural, morphological and physiological traits. In fishes, there are
 potential costs if ectoparasites decrease streamlining, thereby directly
 compromising swimming performance. Few studies have examined the effects
 of ectoparasites on fish swimming performance and none distinguish between
 energetic costs imposed by changes in streamlining and effects on host
 physiology. The bridled monocle bream (Scolopsis bilineatus) is
 parasitized by an isopod (Anilocra nemipteri), which attaches above the
 eye. We show that parasitized fish have higher standard metabolic rates
 (SMR), poorer aerobic capacities and lower maximum swimming speeds than
 non-parasitized fish. Adding a model parasite did not affect SMR, but
 reduced maximum swimming speed and elevated oxygen consumption rates at
 high speeds to levels observed in naturally-parasitized fish. This
 demonstrates that ectoparasites create drag effects that are important at
 high speeds. The higher SMR of naturally-parasitised fish does, however,
 reveal an effect of parasitism on host physiology. This effect was easily
 reversed: fish whose parasite was removed 24 h earlier did not differ from
 unparasitized fish in any performance metrics. In sum, the main cost of
 this ectoparasite is probably its direct effect on streamlining, reducing
 swimming performance at high speeds.

title: Data from: Predictors and immunological correlates of sublethal mercury exposure in vampire bats

description: Mercury (Hg) is a pervasive heavy metal that often enters the environment
 from anthropogenic sources such as gold mining and agriculture. Chronic
 exposure to Hg can impair immune function, reducing the ability of animals
 to resist or recover from infections. How Hg influences immunity and
 susceptibility remains unknown for bats, which appear immunologically
 distinct from other mammals and are reservoir hosts of many pathogens of
 importance to human and animal health. We here quantify total Hg (THg) in
 hair collected from common vampire bats (Desmodus rotundus), which feed on
 blood and are the main reservoir hosts of rabies virus in Latin America.
 We examine how diet, sampling site and year, and bat demography influence
 THg and test the consequences of this variation for eight immune measures.
 In two populations from Belize, THg concentrations in bats were best
 explained by an interaction between long-term diet inferred from stable
 isotopes and year. Bats that foraged more consistently on domestic animals
 exhibited higher THg. However, relationships between diet and THg were
 evident only in 2015 but not in 2014, which could reflect recent
 environmental perturbations associated with agriculture. THg
 concentrations were low relative to values previously observed in other
 bat species but still correlated with bat immunity. Bats with higher THg
 had more neutrophils, weaker bacterial killing ability and impaired innate
 immunity. These patterns suggest that temporal variation in Hg exposure
 may impair bat innate immunity and increase susceptibility to pathogens
 such as bacteria. Unexpected associations between low-level Hg exposure
 and immune function underscore the need to better understand the
 environmental sources of Hg exposure in bats and the consequences for bat
 immunity and susceptibility.
