The synthetic networks in this dataset were generated using the RECCS protocol developed by Anne et al. (2024). Briefly, the RECCS process is as follows. An input network and clustering (by any algorithm) is used to pass input parameters to a stochastic block model (SBM) generator. The output is then modified to improve fit to the input real world clusters after which outlier nodes are added using one of three different options. See Anne et al. (2024): in press Complex Networks and Applications XIII (preprint : arXiv:2408.13647). The networks in this dataset were generated using either version 1 or version 2 of the RECCS protocol followed by outlier strategy S1. The input networks to the process were (i) the Curated Exosome Network (CEN), Wedell et al. (2021), (ii) cit_hepph (https://snap.stanford.edu/), (iii) cit_patents (https://snap.stanford.edu/), and (iv) wiki_topcats (https://snap.stanford.edu/). Input Networks: The CEN can be downloaded from the Illinois Data Bank: https://databank.illinois.edu/datasets/IDB-0908742 -> cen_pipeline.tar.gz -> S1_cen_cleaned.tsv The synthetic file naming system should be interpreted as follows: a_b_c.tsv.gz where a - name of inspirational network, e.g., cit_hepph b - the resolution value used when clustering a with the Leiden algorithm optimizing the Constant Potts Model, e.g., 0.01 c- the RECCS option used to approximate edge count and connectivity in the real world network, e.g., v1 Thus, cit_hepph_0.01_v1.tsv indicates that this network was modeled on the cit_hepph network and RECCSv1 was used to match edge count and connectivity to a Leiden-CPM 0.01 clustering of cit_hepph. For SBM generation, we used the graph_tool software (P. Peixoto, Tiago 2014. The graph-tool python library. figshare. Dataset. https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.1164194.v14) Additionally, this dataset contains synthetic networks generated for a replication experiment (repl_exp.tar.gz). The experiment aims to evaluate the consistency of RECCS-generated networks by producing multiple replicates under controlled conditions. These networks were generated using different configurations of RECCS, varying across two versions (v1 and v2), and applying the Connectivity Modifier (CM++, Ramavarapu et al. (2024)) pre-processing. Please note that the CM pipeline used for this experiment filters small clusters both before and after the CM treatment. Input Network : CEN Within repl_exp.tar.gz, the synthetic file naming system should be interpreted as follows: cen_<resolution><cm_status><reccs_version>sample<replicate_id>.tsv where: cen – Indicates the network was modeled on the Curated Exosome Network (CEN). resolution – The resolution parameter used in clustering the input network with Leiden-CPM (0.01). cm_status – Either cm (CM-treated input clustering) or no_cm (input clustering without CM treatment). reccs_version – The RECCS version used to generate the synthetic network (v1 or v2). replicate_id – The specific replicate (ranging from 0 to 2 for each configuration). For example: cen_0.01_cm_v1_sample_0.tsv – A synthetic network based on CEN with Leiden-CPM clustering at resolution 0.01, CM-treated input, and generated using RECCSv1 (first replicate). cen_0.01_no_cm_v2_sample_1.tsv – A synthetic network based on CEN with Leiden-CPM clustering at resolution 0.01, without CM treatment, and generated using RECCSv2 (second replicate). The ground truth clustering input to RECCS is contained in repl_exp_groundtruths.tar.gz.

Includes two files (.csv) behind all analyses and results in the paper published with the same title. <b>1) 'sites.species.counts'</b> is the raw 2018-2022 data from Angella Moorehouse (Illinois Nature Preserves Commission) including her 456 identified pollinator species and her raw counts per site (there may be a few errors of identification or naming, and there will always be name changes over time). Headers in columns F through Q correspond to the remnant-site labels in Figure 1 and Table 1 of the paper. Columns R to AB are the “nonremnant” sites, which have not been uniquely labelled since the specific sites aren't referenced anywhere in the manuscript. <b>2) 'C.scores'</b> has the 265 species assigned empirical C values (empirical.C) along with the four sets of expert C values and their confidence ranks (low, medium, high), and the Illinois/Indiana conservation ranks (S-ranks), following the methods described in the paper. Other headers in these files: - taxa.code: four-letter abbreviation for genus and specific name - genus: genus name - species: specific epithet - common.name: English name - group: general pollinator taxa group - empirical.C: empirically estimated conservatism score - expert#.C: conservatism score assigned by each of four experts - expert#.conf: expert's confidence in their conservatism score Blank cells in the site-species abundance matrix indicates species absence (or non-detection) Blank cells in C.scores.csv indicates missing S-ranks and unassigned C-scores (with associated missing confidence ranks) where experts lacked knowledge or confidence

Simulated sequences provide a way to evaluate multiple sequence alignment (MSA) methods where the ground truth is exactly known. However, the realism of such simulated conditions often comes under question compared to empirical datasets. In particular, simulated data often does not display heterogeneity in the sequence lengths, a common feature in biological datasets. In order to imitate sequence length heterogeneity, we here present a set of data that are evolved under a mixture model of indel lengths, where indels have an occasional chance of being promoted to long indels (emulating large insertion/deletion events, e.g., domain-level gain/loss). This dataset is otherwise (e.g., in GTR parameters) analogous to the 1000M condition as presented in the SATe paper (doi: 10.1126/science.1171243) but with 5000 sequences and simulated with INDELible (http://abacus.gene.ucl.ac.uk/software/indelible/). For more information, see README.txt. For the INDELible control files, see https://github.com/ThisBioLife/5000M-234-het.

The dataset is for a study conducted to understand genome-wide association (GWA) and genomic prediction of biomass yield and 14 yield-components traits in Miscanthus sacchariflorus.

This study advances the production of potassium sorbate (KS) from triacetic acid lactone (TAL) utilizing food-grade solvents, ethanol (EtOH) and isopropyl alcohol (IPA). We have previously demonstrated the route to produce KS from TAL in tetrahydrofuran (THF) as the main solvent, but the use of THF is associated with environmental and health risks especially for food applications. The process employs a catalytic approach in food-grade solvents and includes three main steps: hydrogenation, etherification and hydrolysis, and ring-opening hydrolysis to produce KS from TAL. In the synthesis of KS from TAL, the use of IPA leads to higher yields and reduced reaction times compared to EtOH. As a result, the overall reaction time in IPA was reduced to 35.7 h, compared to 42.1 h in our previous study using THF and EtOH, while achieving a comparable KS yield of 84% from TAL. The synthesized KS exhibits a trans-2, trans-4 geometrical configuration, identical to that of commercially available KS. Through techno-economic analysis (TEA) and life cycle assessment (LCA), we estimated full-scale production of KS from sugarcane with the developed process in IPA could achieve a minimum product selling price (MPSP) of $8.27 per kg with a range of $7.06–10.16 per kg [5th–95th percentiles from 6000 Monte Carlo simulations] and a carbon intensity (CI) of 13.7 [9.6–18.6] kg CO2-eq per kg. This study highlights the synthesis of KS from TAL using food-grade solvents, demonstrating improved economic viability and environmental sustainability compared to our previous research (MPSP of $9.68 per kg [$8.47–11.45 per kg] and CI of 16.2 [12.0–21.2] kg CO2-eq per kg), as the total required reaction decreases while achieving the comparable overall yield of KS from TAL.

Bioenergy sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) is a promising crop for contributing to the United States bioenergy supply. However, the varying limitations of the marginal lands targeted for its cultivation present a management challenge. This two-year study aimed to investigate how the limitations associated with marginal cropland impact the effects of nitrogen fertilization on the yield of bioenergy sorghum and the uptake of 11 macro- (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, and S) and micronutrients (Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, and B). The study contrasted prime cropland in central Illinois (Urbana) with three marginal cropland sites in southern (Ewing) and central Illinois (Fairbury and Pesotum). These marginal cropland sites are characterized by varying limitations, including low soil fertility (P and K limitations), leaching and erosion, and flooding, respectively. Four nitrogen rates (0, 56, 112, and 168 kg N ha−1) were tested under eight environments. The average yields and ranges of sorghum biomass were 20.2 (17.0–23.2) Mg ha−1 in Urbana, 18.1 (13.1–19.8) Mg ha−1 in Ewing, 13.8 (9.0–17.3) Mg ha−1 in Fairbury, and 23.3 (14.6–33.0) Mg ha−1 in Pesotum. Optimal N rates were 56 N in Pesotum and 112 N in Urbana, Ewing, and Fairbury. Tissue macronutrient contents in Urbana were generally higher than in the marginal croplands, while micronutrient contents did not show discernible trends. Increasing N rate generally correlated with the macronutrient removal except in Ewing. Comparable sorghum biomass yields were observed between prime and marginal croplands (averaging 18.3 Mg ha−1), but optimal N rates varied between 56 N and 112 N. This suggests that yield gaps can be narrowed by applying the optimal N rates for the respective locations. However, increased removals of macronutrients, especially P and K, with increasing yields indicate the need to revise fertilizer recommendations, particularly for soils deficient in these nutrients. Our study suggests that while sorghum production on marginal cropland is feasible, N management needs to be adapted to the unique limitations associated with various types of marginal cropland.

This study evaluates the bioethanol potential in response to irrigation (IR) and non-irrigation (NIR) of oilcane (OC) during a seasonal drought prior harvest. The juice was extracted through mechanical pressing of stems and fermented by Ethanol Red® yeast to produce first-generation bioethanol. Hydrothermal pretreatment followed by enzymatic hydrolysis of bagasse was performed to produce monomeric sugars from structural carbohydrates. The hydrolysates were fermented with engineered yeast for second-generation bioethanol production. The irrigated oilcane juice (276.3 ± 8.9 g/L) constitutes higher sugar concentrations than non-irrigated oilcane juice (236.5 ± 2.2 g/L). The enzymatic hydrolysis of IR-OC and NIR-OC pretreated bagasse yielded similar concentrations of 247.5 ± 2.22 and 249.7 ± 4.98 g/L fermentable sugars. Industry-relevant bioethanol titers of ≥99 g/L and ≥75 g/L were achieved from juice and hydrolysates, respectively. Therefore, the non-irrigation regime did not impact the 1G and 2G bioethanol titers. However, the overall bioethanol yield can be lower due to the reduction of stem yield (8 %) per hectare.

In a set of field studies across four years, the effect of self-shading on photosynthetic performance in lower canopy sorghum leaves was studied at sites in Champaign County, IL. Photosynthetic parameters in upper and lower canopy leaves, carbon assimilation, electron transport, stomatal conductance, and activity of three C4-specific photosynthetic enzymes, were compared within a genetically diverse range of accessions varying widely in canopy architecture and thereby in the degree of self-shading. Accessions with erect leaves and high light transmission through the canopy are henceforth referred to as ‘erectophile’ and those with low leaf erectness, ‘planophile’. In the final year of the study, bundle sheath leakiness in erectophile and planophile accessions was also compared.

Rising global temperatures and urban heat island effects challenge environmental health and energy systems at the city level, particularly in summer. Increased heatwaves raise energy demand for cooling, stressing power facilities, increasing costs, and risking blackouts. Heat impacts vary across cities due to differences in urban morphology, geography, land use, and land cover, highlighting vulnerable areas needing targeted heat mitigation. Urban tree canopies, a nature-based solution, effectively mitigate heat. Trees provide shade and cooling through evaporation, improving thermal comfort, reducing air conditioning energy consumption, and enhancing climate resilience. This report focused on the ComEd service area in the Chicago Metropolitan Region and assessed the impacts of population growth, urbanization, climate change, and an ambitious plan to plant 1 million trees. The report evaluated planting 1 million trees to quantify regional cooling effects projected for the 2030s. Afforestation locations were selected to avoid interference with existing infrastructure. Key findings include (i) extreme hot hours (>95°F) will increase from 30 to 200 per year, adding 420 Cooling Degree Days (CCD) by the 2030s, (ii) greener areas can be up to 10°F cooler than less vegetated neighborhoods in summer, (iii) tree canopies can create localized cooling, reducing temperatures by 0.7°F and lowering annual CCD by 60 to 65, and (iv) afforestation can reduce the region’s temperature by 0.7°F, saving 400 to 1100 Megawatt hours of daily power usage during summer. <b>Note: The data is available upon request from <a href="mailto:dpiclimate@uilliois.edu">dpiclimate@uilliois.edu.
