title: Age estimation based on blood DNA methylation levels in brown bears

description: Age is an essential trait for understanding the ecology and management of
 wildlife. A conventional method of estimating age in wild animals is
 counting annuli formed in the cementum of teeth. This method has been used
 in bears despite some disadvantages, such as high invasiveness and the
 requirement for experienced observers. In this study, we established a
 novel age estimation method based on DNA methylation levels using blood
 collected from 49 brown bears of known ages living in both
 captivity and the wild. We performed bisulfite pyrosequencing and obtained
 methylation levels at 39 cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) sites adjacent
 to 12 genes. The methylation levels of CpGs adjacent to four genes showed
 a significant correlation with age. The best model was based on DNA
 methylation levels at just four CpG sites adjacent to a single
 gene, SLC12A5, and it had high accuracy with a mean absolute
 error of 1.3 years and median absolute error of 1.0 year after
 leave-one-out cross-validation. This model represents the first epigenetic
 method of age estimation in brown bears, which provides benefits over
 tooth-based methods, including high accuracy, less invasiveness, and a
 simple procedure. Our model has the potential for application to other
 bear species, which will greatly improve ecological research,
 conservation, and management.

title: The origin of blinking in both mudskippers and tetrapods is linked to life on land

description: Blinking, the transient occlusion of the eye by one or more membranes,
 serves several functions including wetting, protecting, and cleaning the
 eye. This behavior is seen in nearly all living tetrapods and absent in
 other extant sarcopterygian lineages, suggesting that it might have arisen
 during the water-to-land transition. Unfortunately, our understanding of
 the origin of blinking has been limited by a lack of known anatomical
 correlates of the behavior in the fossil record and a paucity of
 comparative functional studies. To understand how and why blinking
 originates, we leverage mudskippers (Oxudercinae), a clade of amphibious
 fishes that have convergently evolved blinking. Using micro-computed
 tomography and histology, we analyzed two mudskipper
 species, Periophthalmus barbarus
 and Periophthalmodon septemradiatus, and compared them
 to the fully aquatic round goby, Neogobius melanostomus. Study of
 gross anatomy and epithelial microstructure shows that mudskippers have
 not evolved novel musculature or glands to blink. Behavioral analyses show
 the blinks of mudskippers are functionally convergent with those of
 tetrapods: P. barbarus blinks more often under high
 evaporation conditions to wet the eye, a blink reflex protects the eye
 from physical insult, and a single blink can fully clean the cornea of
 particulates. Thus, eye retraction in concert with a passive occlusal
 membrane can achieve functions associated with life on land. Osteological
 correlates of eye retraction are present in the earliest limbed
 vertebrates, suggesting blinking capability. In both mudskippers and
 tetrapods, therefore, the origin of this multifunctional innovation is
 likely explained by selection for increasingly terrestrial lifestyles.

title: Plant growth strategy determines the magnitude and direction of drought-induced changes in root exudates in subtropical forests

description: Root exudates are an important pathway for plant-microbial interactions
 and are highly sensitive to climate change. However, how extreme drought
 affects root exudates and the main components, as well as species-specific
 differences in response magnitude and direction, are poorly understood. In
 this study, root exudation rates of total carbon (C) and its components
 (e.g., sugar, organic acid, and amino acid) were measured under the
 control and extreme drought treatments (i.e., 70% throughfall reduction)
 by in situ collection of four tree species with different growth rates in
 a subtropical forest. We also quantified soil properties, root
 morphological traits, and mycorrhizal infection rates to examine the
 driving factors underlying variations in root exudation. Our results
 showed that extreme drought significantly decreased root exudation rates
 of total C, sugar, and amino acid by 17.8%, 30.8%, and 35.0%,
 respectively, but increased root exudation rate of organic acid by 38.6%,
 which were largely associated with drought-induced changes in tree growth
 rates, root morphological traits, and mycorrhizal infection rates.
 Specifically, trees with relatively high growth rates were more responsive
 to drought for root exudation rates compared to those with relatively low
 growth rates, which were closely related to root morphological traits and
 mycorrhizal infection rates. These findings highlight the importance of
 plant growth strategy in mediating drought-induced changes in root
 exudation rates. The co-ordinations among root exudation rates, root
 morphological traits, and mycorrhizal symbioses in response to drought
 could be incorporated into land surface models to improve the prediction
 of climate change impacts on rhizosphere C dynamics in forest ecosystems.

title: Data for: Size rather than complexity of sexual ornaments prolongs male metamorphosis and explains sexual size dimorphism in sepsid flies

description: Male sexual ornaments often evolve rapidly and are thought to be costly,
 thus contributing to sexual size dimorphism. However, little is known
 about their developmental costs, and even less about costs associated with
 structural complexity. Here, we quantified the size and complexity of
 three morphologically elaborate sexually dimorphic male ornaments that
 starkly differ across sepsid fly species (Diptera: Sepsidae). Male
 forelegs range from being unmodified, like in most females, to being
 adorned with spines and large cuticular protrusions.  The 4th
 abdominal sternites are either unmodified or are converted into complex de
 novo appendages. Male genital claspers range from small and simple to
 large and complex (e.g. bifurcated). We tracked the development of 18
 sepsid species from egg to adult to determine larval feeding and pupal
 metamorphosis times of both sexes. We then statistically explored whether
 pupal and adult body size, ornament size, and/or ornament complexity are
 correlated with sex-specific development times. Larval growth and foraging
 periods of male and female larvae did not differ, but the time spent in
 the pupal stage was ca. 5% longer for sepsid males despite emerging 9%
 smaller than females on average. Surprisingly, we found no evidence that
 sexual trait complexity prolongs pupal development beyond some effects of
 trait size. Evolving more complex traits thus does not incur developmental
 costs.
description: Sex-specific larval and pupal
 durations of 18 sepsid fly species were measured for all
 ca.
 1,500 individuals raised
 in the R. Meier Laboratory of the National University of Singapore at
 constant humidity and temperature (25C). Subsequently, the morphological
 complexity of three male sexual ornaments was estimated for a subset of
 5–20 (on average 10) adult males and females derived from several cohorts
 per species so as to
 represent the entire intra-specific variance in development time and body
 size. These specimens were
 dissected (removal of fore-femurs, sternites, and claspers for males;
 fore-femora and sternites for females) and imaged with a digital camera at
 high resolution. The images were then traced to produce detailed
 two-dimensional outlines of all the above-named traits. Individual trait
 size was measured by its total pixel count from each image using Adobe
 Photoshop CS6. The file contains overall species means of all traits,
 which were further also expressed relative to the corresponding female
 trait to correct for dimorphism.

title: Evidence for niche theory in small mammals along an elevational gradient as revealed by isotopic signatures

description: Exploring and understanding mechanisms of species coexistence remains central to ecological theory. Our study tested predictions of niche theory by examining the isotopic niches of small mammal communities in the four forest types (oak, beech, spruce, timberline) along an elevational gradient in the Southern Carpathian Mountains of Romania. We analyzed δ¹³C and δ¹⁵N values from hair samples of seven rodent and insectivore species collected from oak, beech, spruce and timberline forests over three years. Using stable isotope analysis—Bayesian ellipses and convex hull metrics—we evaluated niche width, overlap and community-level structure.

title: Dataset for: The barrier to radial oxygen loss protects roots against hydrogen sulphide intrusion and its toxic effect

description: The root barrier to radial O2 loss (ROL) is a key root trait preventing O2
 loss from roots to anoxic soils thereby enabling root growth into anoxic,
 flooded soils. We hypothesized that the ROL barrier can also prevent
 intrusion of hydrogen sulphide (H2S), a potent phytotoxin in flooded
 soils. Using H2S and O2-sensitive microsensors, we measured the apparent
 permeance to H2S of rice roots and tested whether restricted H2S intrusion
 reduced its adverse effects on root respiration and if H2S could induce
 the formation of a ROL barrier. The ROL barrier reduced apparent permeance
 to H2S by almost 99%, greatly restricting H2S intrusion. The ROL barrier
 acted as a shield towards H2S; O2 consumption in roots with a ROL barrier
 remained unaffected at high H2S concentration (500 µM), compared to a 67%
 decline in roots without a barrier. Importantly, low H2S concentrations
 induced the formation of a ROL barrier. In conclusion, the ROL barrier
 plays a key role in protecting against H2S intrusion, and H2S can act as
 an environmental signalling molecule for the induction of the barrier. The
 study demonstrates the multiple functions of the suberized/lignified outer
 part of the rice root beyond that of restricting ROL.

title: Legacy effects of anthropogenic disturbances modulate dynamics in the world’s coral reefs

description: Rapidly changing conditions alter disturbance patterns, highlighting the
 need to better understand how the transition from pulse
 disturbances to more persistent stress will impact ecosystem
 dynamics. We conducted a global analysis of the impacts of eleven types
 of disturbances on reef integrity using the rate of change of
 coral cover as a measure of damage. Then, we evaluated how the
 magnitude of the damage due to thermal stress, cyclones,
 and diseases varied among tropical Atlantic and Indo-Pacific
 reefs and whether the cumulative impact of thermal stress and
 cyclones was able to modulate the responses of reefs to
 future events. We found that reef damage largely depends on the
 condition of a reef before a disturbance, disturbance intensity,
 and biogeographic region, regardless of the type of disturbance.
 Changes in coral cover after thermal stress events were largely influenced
 by the cumulative stress of past disturbances and did not depend
 on disturbance intensity or initial coral cover, which suggests
 that an ecological memory is present within coral communities.
 In contrast, the effect of cyclones (and likely other physical
 impacts) was primarily modulated by the initial reef condition
 and did not appear to be influenced by previous impacts. Our
 findings also underscore that coral reefs can recover if
 stressful conditions decrease, yet the lack of action to reduce
 anthropogenic impacts and greenhouse gas emissions continues to
 trigger reef degradation. We uphold that evidence-based
 strategies can guide managers to make better decisions to prepare
 for future disturbances.
description: We conducted a systematic electronic literature search to
 identify the primary literature on the effects of eleven disturbances on
 coral cover. Our systematic assessment followed the Preferred Reporting
 Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. This resulted
 in a total of 157 documents that identified the disturbance and reported
 mean coral cover at the reef-site level for at least two well-defined
 dates
