Fig. 3. A in Hybridization Between Parthenogenetic Lizards (Aspidoscelis neomexicana) and Gonochoristic Lizards (Aspidoscelis sexlineata viridis) in New Mexico: Ecological, Morphological, Cytological, and Molecular Context
Fig. 3. A relatively stable topographically and ecologically complex area located north of the Canadian River and east of Conchas Lake Dam as viewed from the south side of the river, San Miguel County, New Mexico. North of Canadian River (CL4); V near middle shows the area with openstructured mesquite, grassesweeds, and junipers along an unpaved road on the upper bench near a precipice from which individuals of Aspidoscelis neomexicana, A. tesselata C, and A. exsanguis, but not A. sexlineata viridis or A. tesselata D, have been collected; lower V shows bench near the river with dense mesquite, grasses, and weeds in which only individuals of A. neomexicana have been observed. The presence of Aspidoscelis neomexicana along the rocky precipice at CL4, from which it flees into the boulders below when threatened, makes this site the most unusual known to us for the species throughout its range.

Environmental, molecular, and life history data associated with ecological and evolutionary nematode responses to soil phosphorus availability, McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica
Elemental stoichiometry is a useful theoretical framework for understanding the sources and controls on nutrient availability that can structure the composition, diversity, and life history of biotic communities. One such relationship, as postulated by the growth rate hypothesis (GRH), is that organismal development rate is positively linked to cellular phosphorus (P). To test the GRH as part of the McMurdo Dry Valleys Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) program, we examined the effects of phosphorus (P) availability both in situ and in vitro, on the evolution of growth and development of free-living soil nematodes (primarily Plectus murrayi) that occur in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica. During the 2008-2009 austral summer, we collected soils from two glacial till sequences, the Ross Sea till and Taylor II till, occurring in the Lake Fryxell and Lake Bonney basins, respectively, of Taylor Valley. Through a variety of subsequent analyses, we generated the environmental, molecular, and life history trait data contained herein. In addition, this package contains body size and biomass data for nematodes isolated from soil samples collected during the 1999-2000 and 2004-2005 austral summers.
The utility of reptile blood transcriptomes in molecular ecology
<p>Reptiles and other non-mammalian vertebrates have transcriptionally active nucleated red blood cells. If blood transcriptomes can provide quantitative data to address questions relevant to molecular ecology, this could circumvent the need to euthanize animals to assay tissues. This would allow longitudinal sampling of animals' responses to treatments, as well as sampling of protected taxa. We developed and annotated blood transcriptomes from six reptile species. We found on average 25,000 proteins are being transcribed in the blood, and there is a CORE group of 9,282 orthogroups that are found in at least four of six species. In comparison to liver transcriptomes from the same taxa, approximately two-thirds of the orthogroups were found in both blood and liver; and a similar percentage of ecologically relevant gene groups (insulin and insulin-like signaling, electron transport chain, oxidative stress, glucocorticoid receptors) were found transcribed in both blood and liver. As a resource, we provide a user-friendly database of gene ids identified in each blood transcriptome. Although, on average 37% of reads mapped to hemoglobin, importantly, the majority of non-hemoglobin transcripts had sufficient depth (e.g., 97% at >10 reads) to be included in differential gene expression analysis. Thus, we demonstrate that RNAseq blood transcriptomes from a very small blood sample (<10 ul) is a minimally invasive option in non-mammalian vertebrates for quantifying expression of a large number of ecologically relevant genes longitudinally and in protected populations.</p>
