Exploring mechanisms that affect coral cooperation: symbiont transmission mode, cell density and community composition

<p>This repository contains code to accompany the manuscript titled</p> <p><strong>Exploring mechanisms that affect coral cooperation: symbiont transmission mode, cell density and community composition</strong></p> <p>by <strong>Carly D. Kenkel and Line K. Bay</strong><br> &nbsp;</p> <p>In this study, we used a phylogenetically controlled design to investigate the role of vertical symbiont transmission, an evolutionary mechanism predicted to enhance cooperation and holobiont fitness of reef-building corals. Six species of coral, three vertical transmitters and their closest horizontally transmitting relatives, were fragmented and subjected to a two-week thermal stress experiment. Symbiont cell density, photosynthetic function and translocation of photosynthetically fixed carbon between symbionts and hosts were quantified to assess changes in physiological metrics of fitness and cooperation. Amplicon sequencing of the <em>Symbiodinium</em> ITS-2 locus was used to investigate differences in symbiont community composition among focal species. We did not observe universally higher levels of cooperation in vertically transmitting species. However, the reduction in cooperation at the onset of bleaching was marginally associated with symbiont community diversity. Analysis of ITS2 amplicon sequence data suggest that it may not be vertical transmission <em>per se</em> that influences host-symbiont cooperation, but genetic uniformity of the symbiont community.</p> <p>Repository contents:</p> <ul> <li> <p><strong>TraitDataAnalysis.R:</strong> Annotated R script for generating figures and re-creating statistical analyses</p> <ul> <li> <p><strong>RsquaredGLMM.R:</strong> Accessory R script for running RsquaredGLMM analyses, called by <strong>TraitDataAnalysis.R</strong></p> </li> <li> <p><strong>NSF_RunningPam.csv</strong>: Input file for statistical analysis.

DS1. Simulation transmission studies of Terabit MCMs_POETICS POE-2_v1.0

<p>The dataset presents the simulated received optical waveforms of an optical transceiver system based on EMLs operating at 100 Gbaud with PAM-4 signals in the O-band over distances beginning from 2 km up to 10 km of SSMF with a 2 km interval. Multiple scenarios regarding the bandwidth limitations that the signal faces during the transmission have been examined. The devices that impose the bandwidth limitations and are investigated in these simulations are: the laser driver; the electro-absorption modulator (EAM) part of the EML; the photodiode (PD) and; the transimpedance amplifier (TIA). Square-root raised cosine pulse shaping schemes with various values of the roll-off factor are tested, in order to evaluate the pros and cons in each case.</p>

Supporting data for "In situ Quantitative Tensile Tests on Antigorite in a Transmission Electron Microscope"

<p>Abstract: The determination of the mechanical properties of serpentinites is essential towards the understanding of the mechanics of faulting and subduction. Here, we present the first in situ tensile tests on antigorite in a transmission electron microscope. A push-to-pull deformation device is used to perform quantitative tensile tests, during which force and displacement are measured, while the microstructure is imaged with the microscope. The experiments have been performed at room temperature on &nbsp;beams prepared by focused ion beam. The specimens are not single crystals despite their small sizes. Orientation mapping indicated that some grains were well-oriented for plastic slip. However, no dislocation activity has been observed even though engineering tensile stress went up to 700 MPa. We show also that antigorite does not exhibit an pure elastic-brittle behaviour since, despite the presence of defects, the specimens underwent plastic deformation and did not fail within the elastic regime. Instead, we observe that strain localizes at grain boundaries. All observations concur to show that under our experimental conditions, grain boundary sliding is the dominant deformation mechanism. This study sheds a new light on the mechanical properties of antigorite and calls for further studies on the structure and properties of grain boundaries in antigorite and more generally in phyllosilicates.</p>

Data from: Fluorescent biomarkers demonstrate prospects for spreadable vaccines to control disease transmission in wild bats

Vaccines that autonomously transfer among individuals have been proposed as a strategy to control infectious diseases within wildlife populations. However, understanding rates of spread and epidemiological efficacy in real world systems remain elusive. Here, we investigated whether topical vaccines that transfer among bats through social contacts can control vampire bat rabies, a medically and economically important zoonosis in Latin America. Field experiments in 3 Peruvian bat colonies which used fluorescent biomarkers as a proxy for the bat-to-bat transfer and ingestion of an oral vaccine revealed that vaccine transfer would increase population-level immunity up to 2.6 times beyond the same effort using conventional, non-spreadable vaccines. Mathematical models demonstrated that observed levels of vaccine transfer would reduce the probability, size, and duration of rabies outbreaks, even at low, but realistically achievable levels of vaccine application. Models further predicted that existing vaccines provide substantial advantages over culling bats, the policy currently implemented in North, Central, and South America. Linking field studies with biomarkers to mathematical models can inform how spreadable vaccines may combat pathogens of health and conservation concern prior to costly investments in vaccine design and testing.

Transmission Electron Microscopy Dataset for Image Deblurring

<p>The dataset consists of images corrupted by motion blur together with corresponding high-quality images from two different samples, one of thin sectioned kidney tissue and one of a calibration grid. The data was collected using a MiniTEM microscope (Vironova AB). The motion corrupted images are created by moving the sample under the microscope. Each low-quality (motion blurry) imaging sequence has corresponding high-quality images (captured by stopping the microscope at each position in the sequence). The high-quality frames have a size of 2048 x 2048 pixels with an overlap of 50% between adjacent frames. The low-quality (motion blurry) frames are captured with a size of 1024x1024 with the same motion direction (approximately vertically upwards). All images were captured at a field of view of 32&mu;m, and with a per image exposure time of 15ms and stored as 16 bit tiff files. Both samples are imaged with the same settings and have four imaging sequences each.</p> <p>The dataset contains the raw image files as well as a partitioning into training, validation and testing. For these images, five low-quality images have been registered to each high-quality image. For the five registered images the intersection of all is cropped and stored. 1 of the 4 imaging sequences are chosen as the test set and the last part of another of the imaging sequences as a validation set. The rest is put in the training set.</p> <p><em><strong>Folder Structures:</strong></em></p> <ul> <li><strong>Raw data:</strong> <ul> <li>Raw data is the unprocessed data and each sample folder contains 4 image sequences.

Data from: Temperature drives Zika virus transmission: evidence from empirical and mathematical models

<p>Temperature is a strong driver of vector-borne disease transmission. Yet, for emerging arboviruses we lack fundamental knowledge on the relationship between transmission and temperature. Current models rely on the untested assumption that Zika virus responds similarly to dengue virus, potentially limiting our ability to accurately predict the spread of Zika. We conducted experiments to estimate the thermal performance of Zika virus (ZIKV) in field-derived Aedes aegypti across eight constant temperatures. We observed strong, unimodal effects of temperature on vector competence, extrinsic incubation period, and mosquito survival. We used thermal responses of these traits to update an existing temperature-dependent model to infer temperature effects on ZIKV transmission. ZIKV transmission was optimized at 29oC, and had a thermal range of 22.7oC - 34.7oC. Thus, as temperatures move toward the predicted thermal optimum (29oC) due to climate change, urbanization, or seasonally, Zika could expand north and into longer seasons. In contrast, areas that are near the thermal optimum were predicted to experience a decrease in overall environmental suitability. We also demonstrate that the predicted thermal minimum for Zika transmission is 5oC warmer than that of dengue, and current global estimates on the environmental suitability for Zika are greatly over-predicting its possible range.</p>
