Data for: Timing and order of exposure to two echinostome species affect patterns of infection in larval amphibians

10.4231/1YRJ-HZ02

Jason T. Hoverman, Logan Scott Billet

01/06/2021

The study of priority effects with respect to coinfections is still in its infancy. Moreover, existing coinfection studies typically focus on infection outcomes associated with exposure to distinct sets of parasite species, despite that functionally and mo...

Metabolic Source Isotopic Pair Labeling and Genome-Wide Association Are Complementary Tools for the Identification of Metabolite-Gene Associations in Plants

10.4231/1702-6M85

Brian Dilkes, Clint C S Chapple, Cole Wunderlich, Jeffrey Simpson, Xu Li

The optimal extraction of information from untargeted metabolomics analyses is a continuing challenge. Here we describe an approach that combines stable isotope labeling, LC-MS, and a computational pipeline to automatically identify metabolites produced fr...

Seasonal variation in abundance and diversity of eavesdropping frog‐biting midges (Diptera, Corethrellidae) in a neotropical rainforest

10.4231/E00F-VE65

Henry D Legett, Viktor Baranov, Ximena E Bernal

04/28/2021

In the tropics, precipitation patterns result in seasonal fluctuations in the abundance and distribution of plant and animal species. Tropical predators and parasites are therefore faced with seasonal changes in prey and host availability. This study inves...

Synchronized mating signals in a communication network: the challenge of avoiding predators while attracting mates

10.4231/SKRQ-CN44

Henry Legett, Rachel A Page, Ximena E Bernal

03/04/2021

Conspicuous mating signals attract mates but also expose signallers to predators and parasites. Signal evolution, therefore, is driven by conflicting selective pressures from multiple receivers, both target and non-target. Synchronization of mating signals...

Claire T Hemingway, Henry D Legett, Ximena E Bernal

03/04/2021

Mating signals have evolved to attract target receivers, even to the point of exploiting receivers through perceptual manipulation. Signals, however, can also expose signalers to nontarget receivers, including predators and parasites, and thus have also ev...

Traffic noise differentially impacts call types in a Japanese treefrog (Buergeria japonica)

10.4231/1GSD-PZ56

Henry Legett, Ikkyu Aihara, Ryan P. Madden, Ximena E Bernal

03/04/2021

Acoustic noise from automobile traffic impedes communication between signaling animals. To overcome the acoustic interference imposed by anthropogenic noise, species across taxa adjust their signaling behavior to increase signal saliency. As most of the sp...

Anuran predators overcome visual illusion: dazzle coloration does not protect moving prey

10.4231/KZT5-7E19

Geena M Darnell, Sara Zlotnik, Ximena E Bernal

04/06/2021

Predators everywhere impose strong selection pressures on the morphology and behavior of their prey, but the resulting antipredator adaptations vary greatly among species. Studies of adaptive coloration in prey species have generally focused on cryptic or...

Anthropogenic factors, including the spread of endocrine-disrupting chemicals, have been linked to alterations in the reproductive physiology, morphology, and behavior of wildlife. Few studies of endocrine disruption, however, focus on secondary sexual tra...

Signal synchrony and alternation among neighbor males in a Japanese Stream Breeding Treefrog, Buergeria japonica

Henry D Legett, Ikkyu Aihara, Ximena E Bernal

03/04/2021

Animals that aggregate in leks to attract mates often time the production of their mating signals against the signals of neighboring conspecifics. Such signal timing usually falls into general patterns within these aggregations, which can be categorized ba...
