Data from: Metagenomes and Metagenome-Assembled Genomes from Ex Vivo Fecal Incubations of Six Unique Donors

    This is a dataset consisting of donor-specific collections of 78 metagenomes (13 / donor) and 143 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) representing the gut microbiomes of six healthy adult human donors. Raw sequencing data and MAG sequence data will be available in NCBI under BioProject accession PRJNA961974. Spreadsheets attached to this dataset include individual accession numbers and sequencing depth for the raw data; and assembly and NCBI accession numbers, binning information, quality metrics, and taxonomic assignments for the MAGs.

    Data from: Mortality Dynamics of a Polyphagous Invasive Herbivore Reveal Clues in Its Agroecosystem Success

      Field-based, partial life table data for immature stages of silverleaf whitefly on 6 host plants including alfalfa, broccoli, spring and fall cantaloupe, cotton, ornamental lantana, and several species of annual weeds in Maricopa, Marana and Yuma Arizona, USA. Data provide the marginal, cause-specific mortality for eggs, and 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th instar nymphs collectively and stage-specific marginal mortality for each stage over all causes.

      Data from: Effect of Source on Trust of Pulse Nutrition Information and Perceived Likelihood of Following Dietary Guidance

        The purpose of the present study was to examine how information source (control—no source, USDA, fictitious hospital, or fictitious social media) impacts perceptions of diet information. Participants included 943 American adults who were aged 18-74 years and were recruited from across the United States through Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk). ANOVA results indicated that the USDA and hospital sources were perceived as more accurate, trustworthy, reliable, and more desirable to learn more from relative to control and social media. There were no differences in likelihood of following guidance depending on source.

        Data from: Field Trapping and Flight Capacity of Eucosma giganteana (Riley) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) in Response to Behaviorally Active Congeneric Semiochemicals in Novel Silflower Agroecosystems

          We evaluated the flight behavior of E. giganteana in response to semiochemicals identified from other closely related Eucosma species, including: (Z)- and (E)-8-dodecenyl acetate, (E)-9-dodecenyl acetate, (Z)-8-dodecenol, (E,E)-8,10-dodecadienyl acetate, and (Z,E)-9,12-tetradecadienyl acetate. The goals were to evaluate whether any of these compounds could improve capture of E. giganteana on clear sticky cards in the field, and whether the most attractive volatiles might affect flight behavior on a computer-automated flight mill assay.

          Data from: Attraction, mobility, and preference by Lasioderma serricorne (F.) (Coleoptera: Ptinidae) to microbially-mediated volatile emissions by two species of fungi in stored grain

            Our goals were to 1) isolate, and culture two fungal morphotypes, 2) characterize the volatile emissions from grain inoculated by each fungal morphotype (Aspergillus flavus or Fusarium spp.) compared to uninoculated and sanitized grain, and 3) understand how MVOCs from each morphotype affects mobility, attraction, and preference by L. serricorne.

            Data from: Skeletal Muscle Sexual Dimorphism in Mice

              File contains transcriptomics results for gastrocnemius (GA) and soleus (SOL) muscles from adult mice, previously fed a 45% (by energy) high fat diet for ~13 wk. The Supplemental Material also contains gene pathway analysis results (e.g., GO, HMDB), transcripts differentially expressed but with shared or disparate patterns in GA vs. SOL (Venn diagrams), and correlations between summed muscle weights vs. body weight or lean body mass.
