title: Data from: Fine root dynamics in a developing Populus deltoides plantation

description: A closely spaced (1x1 m) cottonwood (Populus deltoides Bartr.) plantation
 was established to evaluate the effects of nutrient availability on
 fine-root dynamics. Time-release fertilizer (17N-6P-12K plus
 micronutrients) was applied to 225-m2 plots at rates of 0, 50, 100 and 200
 kg N ha-1, and plots were monitored for two growing seasons. Fine-root
 production, mortality, live-root standing crop and lifespan were analyzed
 with monthly minirhizotron observations. Soil coring was used to measure
 fine-root biomass. Fine-root dynamics were controlled more by temporal,
 depth and root diameter factors than by fertilization. Cumulative
 fine-root production and mortality showed strong seasonal patterns.
 Production was greatest in the middle of the growing season and mortality
 was greatest after the growing season. Small diameter roots at shallow
 soil depths cycled more rapidly than larger or deeper roots. Strongest
 treatment effects were found in the most rapidly cycling roots. The
 standing crop of live roots increased with fertilizer treatment according
 to both minirhizotron and soil coring methods. However, production and
 mortality had unique treatment response patterns. While cumulative
 mortality decreased in response to increased fertilization, cumulative
 production was intermediate at 0 kg N ha-1, lowest with 50 kg N ha-1, and
 highest with 200 kg N ha-1. Aboveground growth responded positively to
 fertilization, yet growth was level after 50 kg N ha-1despite a threefold
 increase in application rate. Median fine-root lifespan varied from 307 to
 over 700 days and increased with depth, diameter and nutrient
 availability.

title: Data from: Tempo and mode of mandibular shape and size evolution reveal mixed support for incumbency effects in two clades of island-endemic rodents (Muridae: Murinae)

description: Existing radiations in a spatially-limited system such as an oceanic
 island may limit the ecological opportunity experienced by later
 colonists, resulting in lower macroevolutionary rates for secondary
 radiations. Additionally, potential colonists may be competitively
 excluded by these incumbent (resident) species, unless they are
 biologically distinct (biotic filtering). The extant phenotypic diversity
 of secondary colonists may thus be impacted by lower rates of phenotypic
 evolution, exclusion from certain phenotypes, and transitions to new
 morphotypes to escape competition from incumbent lineages. We used
 geometric morphometric methods to test whether the rates and patterns of
 mandibular evolution of the Luzon “Old Endemic” rodent clades, Phloeomyini
 and Chrotomyini, are consistent with these predictions. Each clade
 occupied nearly completely separate shape space and partially separate
 size space. We detected limited support for decelerating and
 clade-specific evolutionary rates for both shape and size, with strong
 evidence for a shift in evolutionary mode within Chrotomyini. Our results
 suggest that decelerating phenotypic evolutionary rates are not a
 necessary result of incumbency interactions; rather, incumbency effects
 may be more likely to determine which clades can become established in the
 system. Non-incumbent clades that pass a biotic filter can potentially
 exhibit relatively unfettered evolution.

title: Data from: Impact of hydromorphological pressures on the macrophytes bioindicators of the ecological water quality in Mediterranean rivers

description: One of the important tools to evaluate the ecological quality of surface
 water is the Macrophytes indices based on the bioindication capacity of
 aquatic plants. In Mediterranean rivers (France, Spain, and Portugal), the
 development of some macrophytes indices like l’Indice Biologique
 Macrophytes Rivières (IBMR), the biological metric score (BMS), as well as
 the Fluvial Macrophyte Index (IMF) are founded on the determination of the
 indicator values of the floristic reference lists. The aim of this study
 was to test the impact of the eco-Mediterranean differences (from one
 country to another) on the indicator taxa by comparing the indicator
 values of the Euro‐ Mediterranean macrophyte indices. With this in mind,
 we explore the possibility of the introduction of the Euro‐Mediterranean
 macrophytes-based indices in Morocco (i.e. the hydrological basin of Sebou
 (HBS)) as a part of a preliminary attempt to develop the first
 Afro-Mediterranean macrophyte index. We confirm that the ecological
 amplitude and species optima vary between Mediterranean ecoregions, and
 indicator taxa differ between countries: There are medium to small
 correlations between Mediterranean indices: IBMR/BMS (p = 0.000, R2 =
 0.57), IMF/BMS (p = 0.000, R2 = 0.34), and IBMR/IMF (p = 0.000, R2 =
 0.30). Five species exhibit major differences in indicator values:
 Zannichellia palustris and Potamogeton pectinatus have more eutrophic
 indicator values in France (IBMR) than in Spain (IMF). Potamogeton
 nodosus, Amblystegium riparium and Lycopus europaeus have broader
 ecological amplitudes in Portugal (BMS) than in France (IBMR) and in Spain
 (IMF), where it is restricted to eutrophic conditions. Furthermore, the
 three indicator systems include different indicator-taxon numbers. The
 comparison of the HBS elaborated list with the Euro‐Mediterranean indices
 revealed the low level of common taxa approximately 6.76% of all indicator
 species used in the French index (IBMR), 10.48% in the Portuguese index
 (IMF) and 12.38% in the Spanish index (BMS). These results show the
 inadequacy of the trophic indices approach with the HBS conditions and
 thus the need for the development of an index based on biotic indices
 approach.

title: Data from: Dietary carotenoids affect the development of individual differences and behavioral plasticity

description: Nutritional conditions experienced during development are expected to play
 a key role in shaping an individual’s behavioral phenotype. The long term,
 irreversible effects of nutritional conditions on behavioral variation
 among and within individuals remains largely unexplored. This study aimed
 to investigate how long-term carotenoid availability (representing low vs.
 high quality nutritional conditions) during both larval and adult life
 stages influences the expression of among-individual variation (animal
 personality) and within-individual variation (behavioral plasticity). We
 tested for personality and plasticity along the exploration/avoidance
 behavioral axis in the Southern Corroboree frog (Pseudophryne corroboree).
 We predicted that treatment groups receiving carotenoids during early
 development would be more exploratory and have greater among- and
 within-individual variation compared to individuals that did not receive
 carotenoids (i.e. silver spoon hypothesis). Superior nutritional
 conditions experienced during development are expected to provide
 individuals with resources needed to develop costly behaviors, giving them
 an advantage later in life irrespective of prevailing conditions.
 Unexpectedly, frogs that did not receive carotenoids as larvae expressed
 greater among-individual variance in exploration behavior. Additionally,
 frogs that did not receive carotenoids at either life stage displayed
 greater within-individual variance. Our findings provide no support for
 the silver spoon hypothesis but suggest that inconsistent nutritional
 conditions between life stages may adversely affect the development of
 behavioral phenotypes. Overall, our results indicate that early and late
 life nutritional conditions affect the development of personality and
 plasticity. They also highlight that nutritional effects on behavior may
 be more complex than previously theorized.

title: Data from: Functional diversity promotes phytoplankton resource use efficiency

description: 1.Understanding the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem
 functioning (BEF) is a central topic in ecology. Multi‐traits based
 functional diversity has been proposed to improve mechanistic
 understanding of the BEF relationship; however, how trait‐based functional
 diversity affects ecosystem functioning and processes has rarely been
 addressed in aquatic ecosystems. 2.Here, we examined the causal
 relationships between three phytoplankton functional diversity indices
 (FAD2, FDc, FRic) and Shannon diversity index versus resource use
 efficiency for nitrogen (RUEN), phosphorus (RUEP), and silicate (RUESi),
 with monthly long‐term datasets from the marine (Western English Channel,
 2000 ‐ 2014) and freshwater (Lake Kasumigaura, 1984 ‐ 2012) ecosystems.
 3.We employed Convergent Cross Mapping (CCM), a novel method developed for
 identifying causality for nonlinear dynamical systems; this is in contrast
 to linear approaches that cannot distinguish causality from correlation.
 CCM found that FDc is the most robust functional diversity index among the
 selected functional diversity indices (FAD2, FDc, FRic) in predicting
 phytoplankton resource use efficiency and exhibited a much stronger causal
 effect than the Shannon index. 4.Furthermore, scenario exploration
 analysis indicates that most causal effects from phytoplankton diversity
 indices on resource use efficiency (RUEN, RUEP, and RUESi) are on average
 positive, and FDc exhibited the most consistent positive causal effects on
 phytoplankton resource efficiency in both marine and freshwater
 ecosystems. Thus, increasing FDc can enhance phytoplankton resource use
 efficiency in aquatic ecosystems. 5.Synthesis. Our results show
 significant causal effects of functional diversity on phytoplankton
 resource use efficiency in both marine and freshwater ecosystems. Among
 all selected functional diversity indices, FDc is the most robust
 functional diversity index in promoting phytoplankton resource efficiency.
 Our study provides empirical evidences in natural aquatic systems that
 trait‐based functional diversity represents better species niche
 partitioning than the Shannon index and thereafter enhances resource use
 efficiency. This finding can improve our understanding on trophic transfer
 and nutrient cycling in aquatic ecosystems.

title: Data from: Developmental plasticity in metabolism but not in energy reserve accumulation in a seasonally polyphenic butterfly

description: The evolution of seasonal polyphenisms (discrete phenotypes in different
 annual generations) associated with alternative developmental pathways of
 diapause (overwintering) and direct development is favoured in temperate
 insects. Seasonal life history polyphenisms are common and include faster
 growth and development under direct development than diapause. However,
 the physiological underpinnings of this difference remain poorly known
 despite its significance for understanding the evolution of polyphenisms.
 We measured respiration and metabolic rates through the penultimate and
 final larval instars in the butterfly Pieris napi and show that directly
 developing larvae grew and developed faster and had a higher metabolic
 rate than larvae entering pupal diapause. The metabolic divergence
 appeared only in the final instar, that is, after the induction of
 developmental pathway that takes place in the penultimate instar in P.
 napi. The accumulation of fat reserves during the final larval instar was
 similar under diapause and direct development, which was unexpected as
 diapause is predicted to select for exaggerated reserve accumulation. This
 suggests that overwinter survival in diapause does not require larger
 energy reserves than direct development, likely because of metabolic
 suppression in diapause pupae. The results, nevertheless, demonstrate that
 physiological changes coincide with the divergence of life histories
 between the alternative developmental pathways, thus elucidating the
 proximate basis of seasonal life history polyphenisms.

title: Data from: No selection for change in polyandry under experimental evolution

description: What drives mating system variation is a major question in evolutionary
 biology. Female multiple mating (polyandry) has diverse evolutionary
 consequences, and there are many potential benefits and costs of
 polyandry. However, our understanding of its evolution is biased towards
 studies enforcing monandry in polyandrous species. What drives and
 maintains variation in polyandry between individuals, genotypes,
 populations and species remains poorly understood. Genetic variation in
 polyandry may be actively maintained by selection, or arise by chance if
 polyandry is selectively neutral. In Drosophila pseudoobscura, there is
 genetic variation in polyandry between and within populations. We used
 isofemale lines to found replicate populations with high or low initial
 levels of polyandry, and tracked polyandry under experimental evolution
 over seven generations. Polyandry remained relatively stable, reflecting
 the starting frequencies of the experimental populations. There were no
 clear fitness differences between high versus low polyandry genotypes, and
 there was no signature of balancing selection. We confirmed these patterns
 in direct comparisons between evolved and ancestral females, and found no
 consequences of polyandry for female fecundity. The absence of
 differential selection even when initiating populations with major
 differences in polyandry casts some doubt on the importance of polyandry
 for female fitness.

title: Data from: Spatial patterns and interspecific associations among trees at different stand development stages in the natural secondary forests on the Loess Plateau, China

description: Quercus wutaishansea populations on the Loess Plateau are currently
 becoming more dominant in natural secondary forests, whereas Pinus
 tabulaeformis is declining. In the present paper, the diameter class
 (instead of age) was used to classify the different growth stages as
 juvenile, subadult, or adult, and the univariate function g(r) was used to
 analyze the dynamic changes in spatial patterns and interspecific
 associations in three 1‐ha tree permanent plots on the Loess Plateau, NW
 China. Our results suggested that the niche breadth changed with the
 development stage. The diameter distribution curve was consistent with the
 inverted “J” type, indicating that natural regeneration was common in all
 three plots. There was a close relationship between the spatial pattern
 and scale, which showed significant aggregation at small distances, and
 became more random as distance increased, but in the Pinus + Quercus mixed
 forests, the whole species were aggregated at distances up to 50 m. The
 degree of spatial clumping decreased from juvenile to subadult and from
 subadult to adult. The spatial pattern also differed at different growth
 stages, likely due to strong intraspecific competition. Associations among
 different growth stages were positively correlated at small scales. Our
 study is important to the understanding of the development of the Q.
 wutaishansea forests; thus, the spatial dynamic change features should be
 received greater attention when planning forest management and developing
 restoration strategies on the Loess Plateau.
description: The detailed field
 survey data of the sampleshree plots with typical
 characteristics in the late stage of the natural secondary changed series
 were arranged, i.e., Plot I for P. tabulaeformis forests; Plot II for
 Pinus+Quercus mixed forests; Plot III for Q. wutaishansea forests. Each
 forest was sampled on both a southern slope and a northern slope (with a
 due east-due west line as the boundary, the slope at the southern boundary
 is the sunny slope and the slope at the northern boundary is the shaded
 slope). With a canopy density of approximately 0.8 based on the adjacent
 gridding method, the plot was divided into 25 20 m × 20 m small plots. In
 each small plot, the coordinates (x and y), diameter at breast height in
 1.3m (DBH), height (h), and the crown width of adult trees (DBH &gt;3 cm)
 were measured (Table 1). In addition, 5 2 × 2 m2 bush quadrats and 5 1 × 1
 m2 plant quadrats (1 m × 1 m) were respectively arranged at the four
 corners and at the center of the subplot.data.xlsx

title: Data from: Two dimensions of demographic differentiation of species in a mountain grassland community: an experimental test

description: 1. There is remarkable variation in life histories of coexisting plant
 species. These 'alternative designs' for the given set of
 environmental conditions are likely to play a role in species niche
 differences and thus may underlie species coexistence, although there is
 no clear demonstration of it. Currently available data on within-community
 differentiation concern primarily easy and measurable traits that are not
 fully informative of life history variation. Their relevance for
 functional differentiation of species and species coexistence is far from
 clear. 2. Here we examined differentiation of coexisting species in
 demographic parameters and how it determines species' response to
 neighbors. We determined these parameters for a set of 21 co-occurring
 species by fitting a process-based model to a long-term (30 yrs) data
 series of shoot counts. We examined the functional relevance of these
 parameters using a field experiment. We further asked with which
 functional traits they are correlated. 3. Species were differentiated
 along two largely independent axes: (i) slow vs. fast, separating species
 according to instantaneous growth rate, competitive response and
 intraspecific density dependence; and (ii) dispersal vs. local dynamics,
 which separated species with strong dispersal (by seeds or vegetative)
 from species that tended to stay in the occupied spot. While the slow-fast
 axis was associated with commonly used leaf and seed traits, the dispersal
 axis was best predicted by lateral spreading distance. 4. Each of these
 two axes predicted different components of species' responses to
 neighbor competition: the slow-fast axis was a good predictor of the
 short-term response, whereas dispersal axis was a good predictor of the
 long-term response. 5. Synthesis. Demographic differentiation of
 coexisting species resembles to an important degree demographic
 differentiation known from large-scale comparisons. This differentiation
 is functionally meaningful also at the fine scale; its role in species’
 responses to competition implies it is involved in species niche
 differentiation and coexistence. While seed and leaf traits are important
 correlates of demographic differentiation, a hitherto underappreciated
 trait, viz. lateral spreading distance, is an important predictor of the
 dispersal axis at the fine-scale and should be more widely used.
