Aphid Collection Tower Site at KBS at the Kellogg Biological Station, Hickory Corners, MI (2005 to 2013) (Reformatted to the ecocomDP Design Pattern)
This data package is formatted as an ecocomDP (Ecological Community Data Pattern). For more information on ecocomDP see https://github.com/EDIorg/ecocomDP. This Level 1 data package was derived from the Level 0 data package found here: https://pasta.lternet.edu/package/metadata/eml/knb-lter-kbs/49/25. The abstract below was extracted from the Level 0 data package and is included for context: Survey of migration of soybean aphid and other aphids of economic interest in 10 midwestern States. Aphids are collected using a suction trap. original data source http://lter.kbs.msu.edu/datasets/52
Soil moisture data across a Florida scrub and sandhill landscape collected from 1998-2018 at Archbold Biological Station
This project was initiated 1998 to examine the variation in percent soil moisture in relation to rainfall, vegetation type, gaps, and time-since-fire in upland habitats at Archbold Biological Station, in south-central Florida. Data were collected from 78 sampling points across four vegetation types (rosemary scrub, scrubby flatwoods, oak-hickory scrub and sandy roadsides) with different time-since-fires (2-3 years or >20 years post-fire). In January 2006, 30 additional sampling points were added to include a fourth vegetation type (southern ridge sandhill). Data were collected at three depths below the soil surface (10, 50 and 90 cm) weekly (1 October 1998 – 9 June 1999), then bi-weekly (23 June 1999 – 3 October 2001), monthly (17 October 2001 – 15 June 2011), and every other month thereafter until the project ended on 16 July 2018.

Fig. 2 in Application of a universal parasite diagnostic test to biological specimens collected from animals
Fig. 2. Cluster dendrogram showing parasite species detected in mammalian hosts. Sequences detected in each specimen using nUPDx were clustered alongside parasite-derived reference sequences of known identity obtained from GenBank. These reference sequences are labelled on the dendrogram branch tips (where appropriate). A peripheral color-coded heat map ring indicates the host animal from which the parasite-derived sequence was detected. Gray branches and blocks on the heat map reflect the position of reference sequences within the tree. (For interpretation of the references to color in this figure legend, the reader is referred to the Web version of this article.)
Fig. 1 in Application of a universal parasite diagnostic test to biological specimens collected from animals
Fig. 1. Schematic describing the nested UPDx protocol employed in this study. This schematic provides a summary of the nested UPDx (nUPDx) protocol originally described by Flaherty et al. (Flaherty et al., 2021). Briefly, the DNA extract is subjected to a restriction digestion using the PstI restriction enzyme, and the digest product is subjected to PCR1 using primers 5'TTGATCCTGC- CAGTAGTCATATGC'3 (outer forward) and 5'GGTGTGTA- CAAAGGGCAGGGAC'3 (outer reverse). The resultant ~2 kb amplicon is digested using the restriction enzymes BamHI and BsoBI. The digest product is then subjected to PCR2 using internal primers 5'CCGGAGAGGGAGCCTGAGA'3 (inner forward) and 5'GAGCTGGAATTACCGCGG'3 (inner reverse) originally described by Flaherty et al. (Flaherty et al., 2018, 2021). The amplicon of PCR2 (~200 base pairs) is finally subjected to Illumina amplicon sequencing.
Fig. 3 in Application of a universal parasite diagnostic test to biological specimens collected from animals
Fig. 3. Cluster dendrogram showing parasite species detected in avian and reptilian hosts. Sequences detected in each specimen using nUPDx were clustered in this dendrogram alongside parasite-derived reference sequences of known identity obtained from GenBank. These reference sequences are labelled on the dendrogram branch tips (where appropriate). A peripheral color-coded heat map ring indicates the host animal from which the parasite-derived sequence was detected. Gray branches and blocks on the heat map reflect the position of reference sequences within the tree.
