title: Data from: New species from Phytophthora Clade 6a: evidence for recent radiation

description: During routine vegetation health surveys in the southwest of Western
 Australia (SWWA), several Phytophthora isolates with affinity to Clade 6a
 have been recovered. In this study, all known species from Clade 6a, P.
 inundata, P. humicola, P. gemini, P. ‘walnut’ and P. ‘personii’, and the
 new isolates were compared based on morphology and DNA sequence data from
 three nuclear genes and two mitochondrial genes resulting in the
 description of five new species, P. balyanboodja, P. condilina, P.
 cooljarloo, P. kwongonina and P. pseudorosacearum. With the exception of
 P. gemini and P. humicola, all species from Clade 6a have been recovered
 from natural ecosystems in SWWA. These species are morphologically
 similar, with predominantly ovoid sporangia and nested and extended
 internal proliferation. If oospores are present, they tend to be aplerotic
 with paragynous antheridia mostly attached adjacent to the oogonial stalk.
 They can all grow at 35C and have a fast growth rate on most agar media.
 These species have all been recovered from the rhizosphere soil and dead
 and dying plants within dry kwongon heathlands, often from water gaining
 sites and frequently from very isolated areas. The radiation, origin and
 potential ecological role of these species are discussed.

title: Data from: Testing the phenotype-linked fertility hypothesis in the presence and absence of inbreeding

description: The phenotype-linked fertility hypothesis suggests that females can judge
 male fertility by inspecting male phenotypic traits. This is because male
 sexually selected traits might correlate with sperm quality if both are
 sensitive to factors that influence male condition. A recent meta-analysis
 found little support for this hypothesis, suggesting little or no shared
 condition dependence. However, we recently reported that in captive zebra
 finches (Taeniopygia guttata) inbreeding had detrimental effects both on
 phenotypic traits and on measures of sperm quality, implying that
 variation in inbreeding could induce positive covariance between indicator
 traits and sperm quality. Therefore, we here assess empirically the
 average strength of correlations between phenotypic traits (courtship
 rate, beak colour, tarsus length) and measures of sperm quality
 (proportion of functional sperm, sperm velocity, sperm length) in
 populations of only outbred individuals and in mixed populations
 consisting of inbreds (F = 0.25) and outbreds (F = 0). As expected,
 phenotype sperm-trait correlations were stronger when the population
 contained a mix of inbred and outbred individuals. We also found
 unexpected heterogeneity between our two study populations, with
 correlations being considerably stronger in a domesticated population than
 in a recently wild-derived population. Correlations ranged from
 essentially zero among outbred-only wild-derived birds (mean Fisher's
 Zr ± SE = 0.03 ± 0.10) to moderately strong among domesticated birds of
 mixed inbreeding status (Zr ± SE = 0.38 ± 0.08). Our results suggest that,
 under some conditions, the phenotype-linked fertility hypothesis might
 apply.

title: Data from: Pulse of inflammatory proteins in the pregnant uterus of European polecats (Mustela putorius) leading to the time of implantation

description: Uterine secretory proteins protect the uterus and conceptuses against
 infection, facilitate implantation, control cellular damage resulting from
 implantation, and supply pre-implantation embryos with nutrients. Unlike
 in humans, the early conceptus of the European polecat (Mustela putorius;
 ferret) grows and develops free in the uterus until implanting at about 12
 days after mating. We found that the proteins appearing in polecat uteri
 changed dramatically with time leading to implantation. Several of these
 proteins have also been found in pregnant uteri of other eutherian
 mammals. However, we found a combination of two increasingly abundant
 proteins that have not been recorded before in pre-placentation uteri.
 First, the broad-spectrum proteinase inhibitor α2-macroglobulin rose to
 dominate the protein profile by the time of implantation. Its functions
 may be to limit damage caused by the release of proteinases during
 implantation or infection, and to control other processes around sites of
 implantation. Second, lipocalin-1 (also known as tear lipocalin) also
 increased substantially in concentration. This protein has not previously
 been recorded as a uterine secretion in pregnancy in any species. If
 polecat lipocalin-1 has similar biological properties to that of humans,
 then it may have a combined function in antimicrobial protection and
 transporting or scavenging lipids. The changes in the uterine secretory
 protein repertoire of European polecats is therefore unusual, and may be
 representative of pre-placentation supportive uterine secretions in
 mustelids (otters, weasels, badgers, mink, wolverines) in general.

title: Data from: Do the antipredator strategies of shared prey mediate intraguild predation and mesopredator suppression?

description: Understanding the conditions that facilitate top predator effects upon
 mesopredators and prey is critical for predicting where these effects will
 be significant. Intraguild predation (IGP) and the ecology of fear are
 hypotheses used to describe the effects of top predators upon
 mesopredators and prey species, but make different assumptions about
 organismal space use. The IGP hypothesis predicts that mesopredator
 resource acquisition and risk are positively correlated, creating a
 fitness deficit. But if shared prey also avoid a top predator, then
 mesopredators may not have to choose between risk and reward. Prey life
 history may be a critical predictor of how shared prey respond to
 predation and may mediate mesopredator suppression. We used hierarchical
 models of species distribution and abundance to test expectations of IGP
 using two separate triangular relationships between a large carnivore,
 smaller intraguild carnivore, and shared mammalian prey with different
 life histories. Following IGP, we expected that a larger carnivore would
 suppress a smaller carnivore if the shared prey species did not spatially
 avoid the large carnivore at broad scales. If prey were fearful over broad
 scales, we expected less evidence of mesopredator suppression. We tested
 these theoretical hypotheses using remote camera detections across a large
 spatial extent. Lagomorphs did not appear to avoid coyotes, and fox
 detection probability was lower as coyote abundance increased. In
 contrast, white-tailed deer appeared to avoid areas of increased wolf use,
 and coyote detection probability was not reduced at sites where wolves
 occurred. These findings suggest that mesopredator suppression by larger
 carnivores may depend upon the behavior of shared prey, specifically the
 spatial scale at which they perceive risk. We further discuss how
 extrinsic environmental factors may contribute to mesopredator
 suppression.

title: Data from: Psychosocial interventions for post-traumatic stress disorder in refugees and asylum seekers resettled in high-income countries: systematic review and meta-analysis

description: Treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in refugees and asylum
 seekers resettled in high-income countries presents specific challenges.
 This systematic review examined the effectiveness of psychosocial
 interventions for this group. We searched the Cochrane Central Register of
 randomised trials, CINAHL, EMBASE, PILOTS, PsycINFO, PubMed and Web of
 Science up to July 2016. Studies included randomised and controlled
 clinical trials comparing psychosocial interventions with waiting list or
 treatment as usual in adult refugees and asylum seekers with PTSD
 resettled in high-income countries. PTSD symptoms post-intervention was
 the primary outcome. We computed standardized mean differences (SMD) with
 95% confidence intervals (CI). This study is registered with PROSPERO:
 CRD42015027843. Twelve studies were included in the meta-analysis.
 Psychosocial interventions were effective in decreasing PTSD symptoms
 relative to control groups (SMD -1·03, 95% CI -1·55 to -0·51; number
 needed to treat 4·4; I2 86%; 95% CI 77 to 91). Narrative exposure therapy,
 a manualized short-term variant of cognitive behavioural therapy with a
 trauma focus, was the best-supported intervention (5 RCTs, 187
 participants, SMD -0·78, 95% CI -1·18 to -0·38, I2 37%; 95% CI 0 to 77).
 Methodological quality of the included studies was limited. Overall,
 psychosocial interventions for asylum seekers and refugees with PTSD
 resettled in high-income countries were found to provide significant
 benefits in reducing PTSD symptoms. Yet, the number of studies is small
 and their methodological quality limited, so that more rigorous trials
 should be conducted in the future.

title: Data from: Day/night upper thermal limits differ within Ectatomma ruidum ant colonies

description: In the tropics, daily temperature fluctuations can pose physiological
 challenges for ectothermic organisms, and upper thermal limits may affect
 foraging activity over the course of the day. Variation in upper thermal
 limits can occur among and within species, and for social insects such as
 ants, within colonies. Within colonies, upper thermal limits may differ
 among individuals or change for an individual throughout the day. Daytime
 foragers of the Neotropical ant Ectatomma ruidum have higher critical
 thermal maxima (CTmax) than nocturnal foragers, but whether these
 differences occur among or within colonies was not previously known. We
 investigated the potential mechanisms accounting for day/night variation
 in CTmax of E. ruidum foragers by testing whether CTmax varied among or
 within colonies or due to individuals within colonies acclimating to
 changes in temperature over a short time scale (3 h). We found within- but
 not among-colony differences in CTmax on a diel cycle, and we found no
 evidence for among- or within-colony partitioning of foraging times by
 individual workers. Individuals did not acclimate to experimental
 manipulations of temperature, although additional experiments with more
 ecologically relevant temperature manipulations are needed to rule out
 this mechanism. In summary, we have shown that day/night differences in
 upper thermal limits can occur within ant colonies, but further
 investigation is needed to elucidate the mechanisms driving this
 variation.

title: Data from: Testing the hypothesis of loss of defences on islands across a wide latitudinal gradient of Periploca laevigata populations

description: PREMISE OF THE STUDY: We tested a hypothesis that predicts loss of
 chemical defences on island plant populations (LCDIH) as an evolutionary
 response to limited herbivore pressures. METHODS: Using a common garden
 approach, we grew 16 populations (N = 286 seedlings) of Periploca
 laevigata, a Mediterranean shrub for which previous studies suggested
 tannin-mediated responses to animal browsing. Our experimental setting
 represented a wide latitudinal gradient (37-15ºN) encompassing three
 island systems, virtually free of large herbivores, and three mainland
 areas. Putative chemical defences were estimated from tannin-protein
 precipitation assays, and inducible responses in growth and chemical
 traits were assessed between seasons and by subjecting plants to a pruning
 treatment. KEY RESULTS: We failed to find support for the LCDIH, since
 island populations (Canary Islands, Cape Verde) displayed increasingly
 higher constitutive levels of tannins at lower latitudes. Seasonality, but
 not experimental pruning, induced variation in levels of tannins in a
 consistent pattern across populations. Thus, net differences in leaf
 tannin concentration remained similar among geographical areas regardless
 of the factor considered, with latitude being the best explanatory factor
 for this trait over seasonal growth patterns. CONCLUSIONS: Geographical
 variation in total tannin pools appears to be mediated by factors other
 than herbivore pressure in P. laevigata. We hypothesize that abiotic
 correlates of latitude not considered in our study have promoted high
 constitutive levels of leaf tannins across Macaronesian populations, which
 ultimately may explain the pattern of seasonal variation and latitudinal
 increase from Mediterranean to subtropical Cape Verde populations. In

title: Data from: Parasite infection in a central sensory organ of fish does not affect host personality

description: Among the ecological factors acting on the evolution and expression of
 animal personalities and behavioral syndromes, parasitism has received
 comparatively little attention. However, infection and host behavior are
 often strongly intertwined, because host behavior can predict the risk of
 infection and can also be changed by an infection. We conducted a
 controlled experimental infection study to explore the effects of
 infection on host boldness, exploration and activity using rainbow trout
 Oncorhynchus mykiss and its trematode parasite Diplostomum
 pseudospathaceum, which infects a central sensory organ of the fish, the
 eye lens. Contrary to our expectation, infection did not change the
 within-individual consistency of the personality traits or the
 relationships between the traits, but infected individuals were less bold
 than uninfected control individuals. We also found no relationship between
 personality in uninfected fish and resistance against parasite infection,
 suggesting that behaviors which increase parasite encounter do not select
 for improved resistance. Thus, we found only weak support for
 parasite-mediated effects on animal personalities.

title: Data from: The relationship between female brooding and male nestling provisioning: does climate underlie geographic variation in sex roles?

description: Comparative studies of populations occupying different environments can
 provide insights into the ecological conditions affecting differences in
 parental strategies, including the relative contributions of males and
 females. Male and female parental strategies reflect the interplay between
 ecological conditions, the contributions of the social mate, and the needs
 of offspring. Climate is expected to underlie geographic variation in
 incubation and brooding behavior, and can thereby affect both the absolute
 and relative contributions of each sex to other aspects of parental care
 such as offspring provisioning. However, geographic variation in brooding
 behavior has received much less attention than variation in incubation
 attentiveness or provisioning rates. We compared parental behavior during
 the nestling period in populations of orange-crowned warblers (Oreothlypis
 celata) near the northern (64°N) and southern (33°N) boundaries of the
 breeding range. In Alaska, we found that males were responsible for the
 majority of food delivery whereas the sexes contributed equally to
 provisioning in California. Higher male provisioning in Alaska appeared to
 facilitate a higher proportion of time females spent brooding the
 nestlings. Surprisingly, differences in brooding between populations could
 not be explained by variation in ambient temperature, which was similar
 between populations during the nestling period. While these results
 represent a single population contrast, they suggest additional hypotheses
 for the ecological correlates and evolutionary drivers of geographic
 variation in brooding behavior, and the factors that shape the
 contributions of each sex.

title: Data from: New bothremydid turtle (Testudines, Pleurodira) from the Paleocene of north-eastern Colombia

description: A new turtle, Puentemys mushaisaensis, from the middle to late Paleocene
 Cerrejón Formation of Colombia, is described on the basis of a partial
 skull and many partial to nearly complete carapaces and plastrons
 representing multiple ontogenetic stages. Whereas P. mushaisaensis is
 unique in aspects of its shell morphology, it shares many diagnostic
 characteristics of bothremydid pleurodirans, including a long
 exoccipital-quadrate contact, a very low and rounded almost circular
 carapace, and a thinner internal bone cortex than that of the external
 cortex in both the carapace and plastron. With a maximum carapacial length
 of 151 cm, P. mushaisaensis is the largest known bothremydid turtle and
 represents the first occurrence of bothremydids in the Paleogene of South
 American tropics. Results from a cladistic analysis of bothremydids
 indicate that P. mushaisaensis shares a close relationship with Foxemys
 mechinorum from the Late Cretaceous of Europe, indicating a wide-spread
 geographical distribution for bothremydines during the Late
 Cretaceous–Paleocene.

title: Data from: Odor alters color preference in a foraging jumping spider

description: In many prey taxa with aposematic coloration, prey defenses also involve
 signals in other modalities (odors, sounds, etc.), yet the selective
 forces that have driven multimodality in warning displays are not well
 understood. One potential hypothesis that has recently received support in
 the avian literature (but has yet to be examined in invertebrates) is that
 different signal components may interact synergistically, such that one
 component of a signal (odor) may trigger a predator’s aversion to another
 component of a signal (color). Here we gave jumping spiders (Habronattus
 trimaculatus) the choice between red or black prey (artificially-colored
 termites) in either the presence or absence of odor from the
 chemically-defended coreid bug (Acanthocephala femorata). When the odor
 was present, spiders were more likely to avoid the color red compared with
 when the odor was absent. Interestingly, this pattern only held up when
 the odor was novel; subsequent exposure to the odor had no effect on color
 preference. Moreover, this pattern only held for the color red (a color
 typically used as a warning color and often paired with odor). We
 replicated this experiment giving spiders the choice between green or
 black prey, and found that the presence of the odor had no effect on the
 spiders’ responses to the color green. We discuss these findings in the
 context of predator psychology and the evolution of prey coloration.
