Viewing behavior and vertical eye-level light for non-image-forming effects
<p>When considering non-image-forming (NIF) light effects on people, knowing the light vertically at eye-level is necessary. However, people are dynamic in their behavior and constantly change their viewing direction. This means that light measured vertically towards a constant direction might differ from the actual light that reaches people’s eyes. If the difference is large, viewing behavior might need to be included in lighting design measurements and simulations predicting the potential of the light to induce NIF light effects. This dataset was collected during an experiment on the difference between the actual dynamic eye-level light of office workers while seated at a desk (dynamic condition) and light measured statically towards a computer screen (static condition). The dataset was collected to test the hypothesis: "There is a significant and relevant difference between simultaneously measured static and dynamic light conditions in an office environment occupied by one user." It includes measured and simulated light quantities (illuminance, alpha-opic quantities according to CIE S026 and light-driven alertness according to the non-visual direct response model) together with participants' measured face orientation (horizontal and vertical) in an office environment with a single user.</p>
Data from: Vertically inherited microbiota and environment modifying behaviors conceal genetic variation in dung beetle life history
<p>Diverse organisms actively manipulate their (sym)biotic and physical environment in ways that feedback on their own development. However, the degree to which these processes affect microevolution remains poorly understood. The gazelle dung beetle both physically modifies its ontogenetic environment and structures its biotic interactions through vertical symbiont transmission. By experimentally eliminating i) physical environmental modifications, and ii) the vertical inheritance of microbes, we assess how environment modifying behavior and microbiome transmission shape heritable variation. We found that depriving larvae from symbionts and environment modifying behaviors increased additive genetic variance and heritability for development time but not body size. This suggests that larvae's ability to manipulate their environment has the potential to modify heritable variation and to facilitate the accumulation of cryptic genetic variation. This cryptic variation may become released and selectable when organisms encounter environments that alter the degree to which they can be manipulated. Furthermore, we found heritable variation for the response to the elimination of environmental modifications, indicating that genotypes differ in their dependence on the ability to manipulate their environment. Our findings highlight that the ability of organisms to actively manipulate their environment may affect the potential of populations to evolve when encountering novel, stressful conditions.</p>
Vertically inherited microbiota and environment-modifying behaviors indirectly shape the exaggeration of secondary sexual traits in the gazelle dung beetle
<p><span>Many organisms actively manipulate the environment</span><span> in ways that have the potential to feed back on their own development, a process referred to as developmental niche construction</span><span>. Yet, </span><span>the role that constructed biotic and abiotic environments play in shaping phenotypic variation and its evolution is insufficiently understood. Here, we assess whether environmental modifications made by developing dung beetles impact the environment-sensitive expression of secondary sexual traits</span><span>.</span> <span>Larval gazelle dung beetles both physically modify their ontogenetic environment and structure their biotic interactions through the vertical inheritance of microbial symbionts. By experimentally eliminating i) physical environmental modifications, and ii) the vertical inheritance of microbes, we assess the degree to which (sym)biotic and physical environmental modifications shape the exaggeration of several traits </span><span>varying in their degree and direction of sexual dimorphism. We expected the experimental reduction of a larva's ability to shape its environment to affect trait size and scaling, especially for traits that are sexually dimorphic and environmentally plastic</span><span>. </span><span>We find that compromised developmental niche construction indeed shapes sexual dimorphism in overall body size and the absolute sizes of male-limited exaggerated head horns, the strongly sexually dimorphic fore tibia length and width, as well as the weakly dimorphic elytron length and width. This suggests that ontogenetic environmental modifications affect sex-specific phenotypic variation in functional traits. However, most of these effects can be attributed to nutrition-dependent plasticity in size and non-isometric trait scaling, rather than body-size-independent effects on the developmental regulation of trait size. Our findings suggest that the reciprocal relationship between developing organisms, their symbionts, and their environment can have considerable impacts on sexual dimorphism and functional morphology. </span></p>
