16S-raw-.001-abundance.representative.sequences

This fasta file includes 16S sequence data from different environmental samples. Within QIIME2, DADA2 was used to remove primer sequences from the reads, perform error correction, identify sequence variants, and remove chimeric sequences. Sequence variants were then classified by a naive Bayes classifier within QIIME2 using release of 128 of the Silva SSU database. An abundance filter was applied, and sequence variants that did not compose at least 0.1% of at least one library were removed from all libraries. The fasta file includes all variants that passed the abundance filter

All_BB_Layers

This data table organizes how many broodballs were laid in each replicate container by layer. It is used for the statistics of Phase 1 maternal behavior and the corresponding Figure 2

Phase 1 Offspring Responses

This data table includes details regarding the offspring values measured in Phase 1. It is used for the statistics of Phase 1 offspring responses and the corresponding Figure 3

Phase 2 Maternal and Offpsring Responses

This data table includes details regarding the offspring values measured in Phase 2. It is used for the statistics of Phase 2 maternal behaviors and offspring responses and the corresponding Figure 4

The significance and scope of evolutionary developmental biology: A vision for the 21st century

Evolutionary developmental biology (evo-devo) has undergone dramatic transformations since its emergence as a distinct discipline. This paper aims to highlight the scope, power, and future promise of evo-devo to transform and unify diverse aspects of biology. We articulate key questions at the core of eleven biological disciplines-from Evolution, Development, Paleontology, and Neurobiology to Cellular and Molecular Biology, Quantitative Genetics, Human Diseases, Ecology, Agriculture and Science Education, and lastly, Evolutionary Developmental Biology itself-and discuss why evo-devo is uniquely situated to substantially improve our ability to find meaningful answers to these fundamental questions. We posit that the tools, concepts, and ways of thinking developed by evo-devo have profound potential to advance, integrate, and unify biological sciences as well as inform policy decisions and illuminate science education. We look to the next generation of evolutionary developmental biologists to help shape this process as we confront the scientific challenges of the 21st century.Additional co-authors: Scott F.
