title: Vegetation N:P ratio stoichiometric is a driver of negative density dependence in a succession series of a semi-arid area

description: Plant negative density dependence is the result of interactions
 between plants and between plants and the environment. We
 selected a succession series,
 i.e., early successional, mid-successional and
 late successional stages for Artemisia ordosica, Sophora
 alopecuroides and Stipa
 bungeana communities, respectively, in a
 semi-arid area. We investigated the density and biomass and determined the
 nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) content of every plant species
 for each quadrat of 225 quadrats, and calculated the N and
 P content of vegetation using biomass as a weighted
 coefficient. The results show that, total plant density
 of the A. ordosica community increased with the increase
 of vegetation N:P ratio, while total plant
 density of the S. bungeana community decreased with the
 increase of vegetation N:P ratio, which took on negative
 density dependence at the late successional stage. In the early
 and mid-successional stages of the
 community succession, the stagnation point of the
 quadratic function relationship between plant total density and vegetation
 N/P ratio was (16.6, 353.3), that was, if the
 N:P ratio of the vegetation was greater than 16.6, which
 was characterized by negative density dependence. The analysis
 shows that the negative density dependence is due to
 P limitation.
 These findings reveal that the
 vegetation N:P ratio in a semi-arid region is
 the driving force for negative density dependence.

title: Neural activity during a simple reaching task in macaques is counter to gating and rebound in basal ganglia-thalamic communication

description: Task-related activity in the ventral thalamus, a major target of basal
 ganglia output, is often assumed to be permitted or triggered by changes
 in basal ganglia activity through gating- or rebound-like mechanisms. To
 test those hypotheses, we sampled single-unit activity from connected
 basal ganglia output and thalamic nuclei (globus pallidus-internus, GPi,
 and ventrolateral-anterior nucleus, VLa) in monkeys performing a reaching
 task. Rate increases were the most common peri-movement change in both
 nuclei. Moreover, peri-movement changes generally began earlier in VLa
 than in GPi. Simultaneously-recorded GPi-VLa pairs rarely showed
 short-timescale spike-to-spike correlations or slow across-trials
 covariations and both were equally positive and negative. Finally,
 spontaneous GPi bursts and pauses were both followed by small, slow
 reductions in VLa rate. These results appear incompatible with standard
 gating and rebound models. Still, gating or rebound may be possible in
 other physiological situations: Simulations show how GPi-VLa communication
 can scale with GPi synchrony and GPi-to-VLa convergence, illuminating how
 synchrony of basal ganglia output during motor learning or in pathological
 conditions may render this pathway effective. Thus, in the healthy state,
 basal ganglia-thalamic communication during learned movement is more
 subtle than expected, with changes in firing rates possibly being
 dominated by a common external source.
description: This dataset includes unit data from the internal globus pallidus
 (GPi) and ventrolateral thalamus (VLa) in behaving macaque. Data was
 processed and analyzed to test for the gating and rebound
 hypothesis.

title: Data from: Increasing dependence of lowland populations on mountain water resources

description: Mountain areas provide disproportionally high runoff in many parts of the
 world, and here we quantify for the first time their importance for water
 resources and food production from the viewpoint of the lowland areas
 downstream. The dataset maps the degree to which lowland areas potentially
 depend on runoff contributions from mountain areas (39% of land mass)
 between the 1960s and the 2040s.

title: Data from: Plant-type dominates fine-root C:N:P stoichiometry across China: a meta-analysis

description: Aim: Fine roots play an important role in biogeochemical cycling in
 terrestrial ecosystems. However, our understanding of large scale
 biogeographic patterns and drivers of fine-root C:N:P stoichiometry is
 extremely limited. Location: China. Methods: We compiled data for
 fine-root carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) concentrations at
 165 sites across China to explore large-scale biogeographic patterns and
 drivers of fine-root C:N:P stoichiometry. Results: The geometric means of
 fine-root C, N, and P concentrations were 448.81 mg g-1, 10.73 mg g-1, and
 0.9 mg g-1, respectively, whereas C:N, C:P and N:P ratios were 41.84,
 508.32 and 11.73, respectively. The fine-root elemental concentrations and
 their ratios varied widely among plant groups and biomes, and showed clear
 latitudinal and longitudinal trends, as a consequence of differences in
 climate, soil and plant-type. However, plant-type was the largest
 contributor to the total variance in fine-root C, N, and P and their
 ratios compared to climate factors or soil features. Main conclusions: The
 data reveal the existence of broad biogeographic patterns of fine-root
 C:N:P stoichiometry in China. These results advance our knowledge about
 the biogeochemical cycling of fine roots.

title: Data from: Seasonal variability of groundwater level effects on the growth of Carex cinerascens in lake wetlands

description: Groundwater level is crucial for wetland plant growth and reproduction,
 but the extent of its effect on plant growth can vary along with changed
 precipitation and temperature at different seasons. In this context, we
 investigated the effect of two groundwater levels (10 cm vs. 20 cm depth)
 on growth and reproductive parameters of Carex cinerascens, a dominant
 plant species in the Poyang Lake wetland, during three seasons (spring,
 summer and autumn) and during two consecutive years (2015 and 2016). Carex
 cinerascens showed low stem number, height, individual and population
 biomass in summer compared to spring and autumn. Lower groundwater depth
 was overall more suitable for plant growth resulting in higher stem height
 and biomass. However, the interactive effect between groundwater level and
 season clearly demonstrated that the effect of groundwater level on plant
 growth occurred mainly in autumn. After the withering of the plant
 population in summer, we observed that C. cinerascens growth recovered in
 autumn to similar values observed in spring only with 10 cm groundwater
 level. By consequence, we could deduce that lowering groundwater level in
 the studied Poyang Lake wetland will negatively impact C. cinerascens
 regeneration and growth particularly during the second growth cycle
 occurring in autumn. Additionally, our results also showed that,
 independently of the season and groundwater level, population biomass of
 C. cinerascens was lower during drier year. Altogether, our findings
 suggest that water limitation due to both reduction in precipitation and
 decreased groundwater level during the year can strongly impact plant
 communities.

title: Genetic overlap and causal inferences between kidney function and cerebrovascular disease

description: Objective: Leveraging large-scale genetic data, we aimed to identify
 shared pathogenic mechanisms and causal relationships between impaired
 kidney function and cerebrovascular disease phenotypes. Methods: We used
 summary statistics from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of kidney
 function traits (chronic kidney disease (CKD) diagnosis, estimated
 glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and Urinary Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio
 (UACR)), and of cerebrovascular disease phenotypes: ischemic stroke and
 its subtypes, intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), white matter
 hyperintensities (WMH) on brain MRI. We (i) tested the genetic overlap
 between them with polygenic risk scores (PRS), (ii) searched for common
 pleiotropic loci with pairwise GWAS analyses, and (iii) explored causal
 associations by employing two-sample Mendelian Randomization (MR).
 Results: A PRS for lower eGFR was associated with higher large-artery
 stroke (LAS) risk (p=1x10-4). Multiple pleiotropic loci were identified
 between kidney function traits and cerebrovascular disease phenotypes,
 with 12q24 associated with eGFR and both LAS and small-vessel stroke
 (SVS), and 2q33 associated with UACR and both SVS and WMH. MR revealed
 associations of both lower eGFR (OR per 1-log decrement=2.10,
 95%CI=1.38-3.21) and higher UACR (OR per 1-log increment=2.35,
 95%CI=1.12-4.94) with a higher risk of LAS, as well as between higher UACR
 and higher risk of ICH. Conclusions: Impaired kidney function, as assessed
 by decreased eGFR and increased UACR, may be causally involved in the
 pathogenesis of LAS. Increased UACR, previously proposed as a marker of
 systemic small vessel disease, is involved in ICH risk and shares a
 genetic risk factor at 2q33 with manifestations of cerebral small vessel
 disease.

title: Varying impacts of logging frequency on tree communities and carbon storage across evergreen and deciduous tropical forests in the Andaman Islands, India

description: The majority of Earth’s tropical forests have been selectively logged;
 some on repeated occasions. Selective logging is known to affect forest
 structure, composition and function in various ways, but how such effects
 vary with logging frequency and across forest types remains unclear. In
 the Andaman Archipelago in India, we examined adult and pole-sized trees
 in baseline (unlogged since 1990s), once-logged (logged between 2007 and
 2014) and twice-logged (logged in early 1990s and between 2007 and 2014)
 evergreen and deciduous forests, and tested whether higher logging
 frequency was associated with lower canopy cover, tree density, tree
 diversity, aboveground carbon stocks and divergence in species
 composition, including increased relative abundances of deciduous species
 in these forests. While once-logged evergreen and deciduous forests were
 similar to their respective baselines for most attributes assessed, and
 twice-logged evergreen forests had 22–24% lower adult tree density and
 diversity, twice-logged deciduous forests had 17–50% lower canopy cover,
 pole density, adult species diversity and above-ground carbon stocks, and
 12% higher deciduous fractions compared to the baselines. Collectively our
 results reveal lasting impacts of repeated selective logging, even at
 relative low intensity, on tree communities and carbon storage. These
 impacts can potentially be mitigated by reducing logging frequency and
 retaining unlogged patches in logged landscapes, but management must also
 incorporate heterogeneity in responses and recovery across different
 forest types. In the Andaman Islands, all forests may require more than
 15–25 years between logging events, with deciduous forests
 potentially requiring more stringent extraction limits compared to
 evergreen forests.

title: Beneficial microbes ameliorate abiotic and biotic sources of stress on plants

description: 1. Global climate change and shifting land-use are increasing plant stress
 due to abiotic factors such as drought, heat, salinity and cold, as well
 as via the intensification of biotic stressors such as herbivores and
 pathogens. The ability of plants to tolerate such stresses is modulated by
 the bacteria and fungi that live on or inside of plant tissues and
 comprise the plant microbiome. However, the impacts of diverse classes of
 beneficial microbes and the contrasting stresses that impact plant
 performance are most commonly studied independently of each other. 2. Our
 meta-analysis of 288 experiments across 89 studies moves beyond previous
 studies in that we simultaneously compare the roles of bacterial versus
 fungal microbiome members that live within plant tissues and colonize
 plant surfaces in ameliorating biotic versus abiotic sources of plant
 stress. 3. The magnitude of microbial stress amelioration can be measured
 as the greater proportional impact of beneficial microbes on plant
 performance in more stressful environments. In the plant experiments we
 examine, the magnitude of microbial stress amelioration is substantial: it
 is 23% of the effect size of the typical impact of stress and 56% of the
 effect size of beneficial microbes in the absence of stress. 4. The amount
 of benefit microbes confer to plants differs among classes of microbes,
 depending on whether plants are grown in stressful or non-stressful
 environments. In the absence of stress, beneficial bacteria tend to confer
 greater plant benefits than do fungi. However, symbiotic fungi, especially
 arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, more strongly ameliorate plant stress than
 do bacteria. In particular, beneficial microbes ameliorate salinity,
 foliar herbivory, and fungal pathogen stress. 5. These results highlight
 the fact that the impacts of beneficial and antagonistic components of the
 microbiome on plant performance depend on biotic and abiotic environmental
 contexts. Furthermore, beneficial microbiota are especially critical for
 plant health in stressful environments and thus present opportunities to
 mitigate negative consequences of global change.

title: Isolation and identification of Streptococcus suis from sick pigs in Bali, Indonesia

description: Objective Streptococcus suis (S. suis) is a causative agent for various
 syndromes in pigs. It can be transmitted to humans with typical symptoms
 of meningitis and death. Although human infections have been confirmed at
 Bali Referral Hospital, Indonesia, since 2014, the bacteria have not been
 isolated from pigs. Here, we provide confirmation of the presence of the
 bacteria in sick pigs in the province. Results S. suis was confirmed in 8
 of 30 cases. The final confirmation was made using PCR and sequencing of
 the glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) and recombination/repair protein (recN)
 gene fragments. Upon PCR serotyping, two were confirmed to be serotype 2
 or 1/2. Prominent histopathological lesions of confirmed cases were
 meningitis, endocarditis, pericarditis, bronchopneumonia, enteritis and
 glomerulonephritis. The dominant inflammatory cells were neutrophils and
 macrophages. Further research is needed to understand the risk factors for
 human infection. Community awareness on the risk of contracting S. suis
 and vaccine development are needed to prevent human infections.

title: Data from: An exploratory association analysis of the insulin gene region with diabetes mellitus in two dog breeds

description: Samoyeds and Australian Terriers are the 2 dog breeds at highest risk
 (&gt;10-fold) for diabetes mellitus in the United States. It is
 unknown if the insulin (INS) gene is involved in the pathophysiology of
 diabetes in Samoyeds and Australian Terriers. It was hypothesized that the
 INS gene region provides a common genetic causality for diabetes in
 Samoyeds and Australian Terriers. We conducted a 2-stage genetic
 association study involving both breeds. In the discovery stage (Stage 1),
 Samoyeds with and without diabetes were compared in the frequencies of 447
 tagging single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within 2.5 megabases (Mb)
 up- and downstream of the INS gene on the Illumina CanineHD BeadChip. SNPs
 yielding a P-value &lt; 0.005 were selected for further follow-up. In
 the validation stage (Stage 2), Australian Terriers with and without
 diabetes were compared in the SNPs genotyped by the Affymetrix GeneChip
 Canine Genome 2.0 Array and within 1 Mb up- and downstream of the selected
 SNPs from Stage 1. Two SNPs that were in high linkage disequilibrium (LD,
 r2 = 0.7) were selected from Stage 1. In Stage 2, among the 76 SNPs
 examined, 5 were significantly associated with diabetes after Bonferroni’s
 correction for multiple comparisons. Three of these 5 SNPs were in
 complete LD (r2 = 1 for all associations) and the 2 remaining SNPs were in
 moderate LD (r2 = 0.4). In conclusion, an association between the INS gene
 region and diabetes was suggested in 2 dog breeds of different clades.
 This region could have importance in diabetes in other breeds or in canine
 diabetes at large.

title: Data from: Multi-year genetic sampling indicates maternal gene flow via colony emigrations in the army ant Eciton burchellii parvispinum

description: Sex-biased dispersal occurs when one sex disperses more frequently or
 farther than the opposite sex. In ants, dispersal is often male-biased and
 males typically contribute more strongly to gene flow within and among ant
 populations. However, army ants may offer an exceptional case of
 female-biased dispersal because army ant colonies (particularly species in
 the Neotropical genus Eciton) routinely emigrate among nest sites. We
 hypothesized that maternal mobility via successive colony emigrations
 would reduce the relative male bias in dispersal, and that emigrations
 would contribute to gene flow within an Eciton population. We genotyped
 workers (highly variable DNA microsatellite loci) from Eciton burchellii
 parvispinum colonies collected over a 10X10 km area in Monteverde, Costa
 Rica. Samples were spaced approximately three years apart (in 2006 and
 2009), the typical time between colony reproductive bouts. We used worker
 genotypes to reconstruct the genotypes of their mother queens and of a
 subset of the males that sired the workers. We then analyzed the
 population genetic structure of the queen and male genotypes by comparing
 individual-based relatedness estimates for each sex across geographic
 distance and over time. There was no significant difference in spatial
 genetic structure between the sexes, either within or between the 2006 and
 2009 samples. There was some evidence against genetic philopatry: 2009
 queens were significantly unrelated to 2006 queens collected nearby
 (within 0.5 km). The patterns suggest maternal dispersal via emigrations
 contributes to gene flow, reducing or eliminating male biases in
 dispersal. From two populations we estimated average queen dispersal
 distance to be 0.63-1.04 km, a greater distance than many winged ant
 queens disperse. Because emigrations over the lifetime of army ant queens
 queen may contribute to gene flow across the landscape, habitat
 connectivity should be maintained to permit colony emigrations and support
 genetic diversity in populations of this keystone species.

title: Oxygen-mediated plasticity confers hypoxia tolerance in a corallivorous polychaete

description: There is mounting evidence that the deoxygenation of coastal marine
 ecosystems has been underestimated, particularly in the tropics. These
 physical conditions appear to have far-reaching consequences for marine
 communities, and have been associated with mass mortalities. Yet little is
 known about hypoxia in tropical habitats or about the effects it has on
 reef-associated benthic organisms. We explored patterns of dissolved
 oxygen (DO) throughout Almirante Bay, Panama and found a hypoxic gradient,
 with areas closest to the mainland having the largest diel variation in
 DO, as well as more frequent persistent hypoxia. We then designed a
 laboratory experiment replicating the most extreme in situ DO regime found
 on shallow patch reefs (3 m) to assess the response of the corallivorous
 fireworm, Hermodice carnaculata to hypoxia. Worms were exposed to hypoxic
 conditions (8 h ~ 1 mg l-1 or 3.2 kPa) 16 times over an 8-week period, and
 at 4 and 8 weeks their oxygen consumption (respiration rates) were
 measured upon reoxygenation, along with regrowth of severed gills.
 Exposure to low DO resulted in worms regenerating significantly larger
 gills compared to worms under normoxia. This response to low DO was
 coupled with an ability to maintain elevated oxygen
 consumption/respiration rates after low DO exposure. In contrast, worms
 from the normoxic treatment had significantly depressed respiration rates
 after being exposed to low DO (week 8). This indicates that
 oxygen-mediated plasticity in both gill morphology and physiology may
 confer tolerance to increasingly frequent and severe hypoxia in one
 important coral predator associated with reef decline.
