title: Data from: Genotype-aggregated planting improves yield in Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus) due to self/non-self discrimination

description: Accumulating evidence indicates that plants are capable of self/non-self
 and kin/stranger discrimination. Plants increase biomass of and resource
 allocation to roots when they encounter roots of conspecific non-self
 neighbors, but not when they encounter self roots. Root proliferation
 usually occurs at the expense of reproductive investment. Therefore, if
 clonal crops are capable of self/non-self discrimination, spatially
 aggregated planting with seedlings of the same genotype may decrease root
 proliferation and produce a higher yield than planting without considering
 seedling genotype. To test this idea, we grew Helianthus tuberosus
 (Jerusalem artichoke) in pot and field conditions and examined
 self/non-self discrimination and the effectiveness of genotype-aggregated
 planting. Plants grown in self pairs allocated less to root biomass than
 plants grown in non-self pairs in both pot and field conditions; in field
 conditions, the self pairs produced 40% more tubers by weight than the
 non-self pairs. When six sprouts from seed tuber of two different
 genotypes were grown together, with the two genotypes planted aggregately
 (AGG) or alternately (ALT), plants in the AGG group produced 14% more
 tubers than plants in the ALT group. These results suggest that spatial
 aggregation of genotypes increases tuber production in H. tuberosus.
 Because we found no evidence for trade-offs between root biomass and tuber
 production, suppression of root proliferation may not be the only
 mechanism behind the benefits of genotype aggregation. By applying the
 concept of self/non-self discrimination, farmers can increase crop
 production without additional external inputs or expansion of agricultural
 land use.

title: Data from: Tree leaf and root traits mediate soil faunal contribution to litter decomposition across an elevational gradient

description: 1.Plant litter decomposition is key to carbon and nutrient cycling in
 terrestrial ecosystems. Soil fauna are important litter decomposers, but
 how their contribution to decomposition changes with alterations in plant
 composition and climate is not well established. 2.Here we quantified how
 soil mesofauna affect decomposition rate interactively with climate and
 leaf and root traits. We conducted an in situ decomposition experiment
 using eight dominant tree species per forest site across four elevations
 (50, 400, 600 and 1000 m above sea level) in northern Japan. We used
 litterbags with different mesh sizes to control litter accessibility to
 soil mesofauna. 3.We found stronger effects of plant litter quality on
 both decomposition rates and faunal contribution thereto, and perhaps of
 local variation in soil nutritional and moisture regimes, than climatic
 effects of elevation. This suggests that changing climate likely alters
 forest litter decomposition rates indirectly through shifts in tree
 community composition more than directly through changing abiotic regimes.
 Considering both leaves and roots as litter resources enlarged the overall
 contribution of variation in litter quality to decomposition rates and
 faunal effects thereupon, because litter quality and decomposition rate
 varied more between leaves and roots overall than among leaves within and
 across elevations. 4.The contribution of mesofauna to litter decomposition
 was larger in nutrient-rich litter than in recalcitrant litter across the
 elevational gradient, suggesting amplification of the effect of litter
 traits on decomposition through preference of soil fauna for their food
 resources. 5.Our findings highlight the importance of considering
 synergistic influences of soil faunal activities with litter traits of
 both leaves and roots for better understanding biogeochemical processes
 across environmental gradients over space or time.

title: Data from: Species discrimination of co-occurring small fossil mammals: a case study of the Cretaceous-Paleogene multituberculate genus Mesodma

description: The mammalian fossil record is largely composed of isolated teeth and
 tooth-bearing elements. In vertebrate microfossil assemblages with closely
 related, co-occurring species of mammals, it can be difficult to identify
 isolated teeth to species level because morphological differences among
 species may be slight and based on a single tooth position. Here we
 investigate the utility of the allegedly diagnostic lower fourth premolar
 (p4) for species-level identification in the genus Mesodma
 (Multituberculata, Neoplagiaulacidae). We conducted linear and geometric
 morphometrics on 86 p4s representing four Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg)
 species of Mesodma that are common in deposits of the western interior of
 North America. Although Mesodma has been extensively discussed in the
 literature, these four species overlap considerably in p4 size and shape,
 making species-level identifications challenging. Using linear
 measurements, landmarks, and semilandmarks, we quantified p4 size and
 shape to understand morphological variation across the genus and uncover
 practical sources of morphological differentiation among the species
 represented here. Our results indicate (1) size is more important than
 shape for identifying p4s of Mesodma species; p4 shape varies across the
 genus, but cannot be used alone to identify isolated p4s to species; (2)
 M. garfieldensis and M. thompsoni cannot be distinguished from each other
 using p4 size or shape; we therefore subsume M. garfieldensis within M.
 thompsoni; and (3) M. formosa increased in size across the K-Pg boundary.
 In light of these results, we recommend that taxonomic diagnoses relying
 on isolated teeth incorporate quantitative analyses of morphology whenever
 possible to increase the accuracy of species-level identifications and
 paleofaunal studies that employ them.

title: Data from: Conservation of multivariate female preference functions and preference mechanisms in three species of trilling field crickets

description: Divergence in mate recognition systems among closely related species is an
 important contributor to assortative mating and reproductive isolation.
 Here we examine divergence in male song traits and female preference
 functions in three cricket species with songs consisting of long trills.
 The shape of female preference functions appears to be mostly conserved
 across species and follows the predictions from a recent model for song
 recognition. Multivariate preference profiles, combining the pulse and
 trill parameters, demonstrate selectivity for conspecific pulse rates and
 high trill duty cycles. The rules for integration across pulse and trill
 time scales were identical for all three species. Generally, we find
 greater divergence in male song traits than in associated female
 preferences. For pulse rate we find a strong match between divergent male
 traits and female peak preferences. Preference functions for trill
 parameters and carrier frequency are similar between species and show less
 congruence between signal and preference. Differences among traits in the
 degree of trait-preference (mis)match may reflect the strength of
 preferences and the potential for linkage disequilibrium, selective
 constraints, and alternative selective pressures, but appear unrelated to
 selection for mate recognition per se.

title: Data from: Recent social history alters male courtship preferences

description: Phenotypically plastic mating behaviour may allow males to modify their
 reproductive behaviour to suit the prevailing social conditions, but we do
 not know if males only react to immediate social stimuli or change their
 inherent mate preferences according to their social history. Here we
 examine the effect of social experiences on the subsequent reproductive
 behaviour of male guppies under standard conditions, allowing us to
 distinguish the effect of past and immediate social conditions. Males
 experienced experimental conditioning periods during which they interacted
 with three females, either of variable size or of similar size. Females
 arrived either simultaneously or consecutively. In subsequent standard
 assays, only males that had experienced females of variable size
 preferentially courted large females. Further, males exposed to sequential
 female arrival courted subsequent females more vigorously than males that
 had experienced simultaneous female arrival. In contrast, males did not
 alter their coercive mating attempts in relation to their recent social
 history. These results demonstrate that males use past experiences to
 modify their subsequent reproductive behaviour rather than reacting only
 to immediate stimuli, and reveal the sophisticated ways in which males
 alter their reproductive tactics to suit the social environment and
 maximise fitness across changing selective landscapes.

title: Data from: Monsters are people too

description: Animals, including dogs, dolphins, monkeys and man, follow gaze. What
 mediates this bias towards the eyes? One hypothesis is that primates
 possess a distinct neural module that is uniquely tuned for the eyes of
 others. An alternative explanation is that configural face processing
 drives fixations to the middle of peoples' faces, which is where the
 eyes happen to be located. We distinguish between these two accounts.
 Observers were presented with images of people, non-human creatures with
 eyes in the middle of their faces (`humanoids’) or creatures with eyes
 positioned elsewhere (`monsters’). There was a profound and significant
 bias towards looking early and often at the eyes of humans and humanoids
 and also, critically, at the eyes of monsters. These findings demonstrate
 that the eyes, and not the middle of the head, are being targeted by the
 oculomotor system.

description: The new sorediate species Lecanora kenyana from Mount Kenya and Lecanora
 orientoafricana from the Rift Valley in Kenya are described. Lecanora
 kenyana has red-brown apothecia with a constricted base, a
 melacarpella–type amphithecium, pulicaris–type epihymenium, a hyaline
 hypothecium, and contains usnic acid as major constituent. Lecanora
 orientoafricana is characterized by having a dark hypothecium,
 pulicaris-type amphithecium, chlarotera-epihymenium, and contains
 atranorin and gangaleoidin. A phylogenetic analysis using maximum
 likelihood and a Bayesian approach based on DNA sequence data of mtSSU and
 ITS rDNA support that both new species belong to Lecanora sensu stricto
 and cluster with species containing usnic acid or having a dark
 hypothecium, respectively.

title: Data from: Feather corticosterone reveals stress associated with dietary changes in a breeding seabird

description: Changes in climate and anthropogenic pressures might affect the
 composition and abundance of forage fish in the world's oceans. The
 junk-food hypothesis posits that dietary shifts that affect the quality
 (e.g., energy content) of food available to marine predators may impact
 their physiological state and consequently affect their fitness.
 Previously, we experimentally validated that deposition of the
 adrenocortical hormone, corticosterone, in feathers is a sensitive measure
 of nutritional stress in seabirds. Here, we use this method to examine how
 changes in diet composition and prey quality affect the nutritional status
 of free-living rhinoceros auklets (Cerorhinca monocerata). Our study sites
 included the following: Teuri Is. Japan, Middleton Is. central Gulf of
 Alaska, and St. Lazaria Is. Southeast Alaska. In 2012 and 2013, we
 collected “bill loads” delivered by parents to feed their chicks (n = 758)
 to document dietary changes. We deployed time–depth–temperature recorders
 on breeding adults (n = 47) to evaluate whether changes in prey coincided
 with changes in foraging behavior. We measured concentrations of
 corticosterone in fledgling (n = 71) and adult breeders' (n = 82)
 feathers to determine how birds were affected by foraging conditions. We
 found that seasonal changes in diet composition occurred on each colony,
 adults dove deeper and engaged in longer foraging bouts when capturing
 larger prey and that chicks had higher concentrations of corticosterone in
 their feathers when adults brought back smaller and/or lower energy prey.
 Corticosterone levels in feathers of fledglings (grown during the breeding
 season) and those in feathers of adult breeders (grown during the
 postbreeding season) were positively correlated, indicating possible
 carryover effects. These results suggest that seabirds might experience
 increased levels of nutritional stress associated with moderate dietary
 changes and that physiological responses to changes in prey composition
 should be considered when evaluating the effect of prey quality on marine
 predators.

title: Data from: Life-history adjustments to intestinal inflammation in a gut nematode

description: Many parasitic nematodes establish chronic infections. This implies a
 finely tuned interaction with the host immune response in order to avoid
 infection clearance. While a number of immune interference mechanisms have
 been described in nematodes, how parasites adapt to the immune environment
 provided by their hosts remains largely unexplored. Here, we used the
 gastrointestinal nematode Heligmosomoides polygyrus to investigate the
 plasticity of life history traits and immunomodulatory mechanisms in
 response to intestinal inflammation. We adopted an experimental model of
 induced colitis and exposed worms to intestinal inflammation at two
 different developmental stages (larvae and adults). We found that H.
 polygyrus responded to intestinal inflammation by up-regulating the
 expression of a candidate gene involved in the interference with the host
 immune response. Worms infecting mice with colitis also had better
 infectivity (earlier adult emergence in the intestinal lumen and higher
 survival) compared to worms infecting control hosts, suggesting that H.
 polygyrus adjusted its life history schedule in response to intestinal
 inflammation.

title: Data from: Population divergence and gene flow in an endangered and highly mobile seabird

description: Seabirds are highly vagile and can disperse up to thousands of kilometers,
 therefore it can be difficult to identify the factors that promote
 isolation between populations. The endemic Hawaiian petrel (Pterodroma
 sandwichensis) is one such species. Today it is endangered, and known to
 breed only on the islands of Hawaii, Maui, Lanai, and Kauai. Historical
 records indicate that a large population formerly bred on Molokai as well,
 but this population has recently been extirpated. Given the great
 dispersal potential of these petrels it remains unclear if populations are
 genetically distinct and which factors may contribute to isolation between
 them. We sampled petrels from across their range, including individuals
 from the extirpated Molokai population. We sequenced 524 bp of
 mitochondrial DNA, 741 bp from three nuclear introns, and genotyped 18
 microsatellite loci in order to examine patterns of divergence in this
 species and to investigate the potential underlying mechanisms.
 Mitochondrial and nuclear data sets indicated significant genetic
 differentiation among all modern populations, but no differentiation was
 found between historic samples from Molokai and modern birds from Lanai.
 Population-specific non-breeding distribution or perhaps strong natal
 philopatry may reduce gene flow between populations. However, the lack of
 population structure between extirpated Molokai birds and modern birds on
 Lanai suggests that petrels may be able to overcome these barriers and
 disperse prior to complete extirpation. Hawaiian petrel populations should
 be managed as distinct units, except potentially for the dwindling
 population on Hawaii, which may require translocation to prevent
 extirpation in the near future.
