Feng, Ling; Takiya, Daniela; Krishnankutty, Sindhu; Dietrich, Christopher; Zhang, Yalin (2023): NEXUS file for Phylogeny and Biogeography of the Sharpshooters (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Cicadellinae). University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. https://doi.org/10.13012/B2IDB-0855589_V1
The text file contains the original aligned DNA nucleotide sequence data used in the phylogenetic analyses of Feng et al. (in review), comprising the 3 protein-coding genes (histone H3, cytochrome oxidase I and 2) and 2 ribosomal genes (28S D8 and 16S). The text file is marked up according to the standard NEXUS format commonly used by various phylogenetic analysis software packages. The file will be parsed automatically by a variety of programs that recognize NEXUS as a standard bioinformatics file format. The first six lines of the file identify the file as NEXUS, indicate that the file contains data for 257 taxa (species) and 2995 characters (nucleotide positions), indicate that the characters are DNA sequence, that gaps inserted into the DNA sequence alignment are indicated by a dash, and that missing data are indicated by a question mark. The remainder of the file contains the aligned nucleotide sequence data for the five genes. Data partitions, representing the individual genes and different codon positions of the protein-coding genes, are indicated by the lines beginning "charset" near the end of the file. Two supplementary tables in the provided PDF file provide additional information on the species in the dataset, including the GenBank accession numbers for the sequence data (Table S1) and the DNA substitution models used for each of the data partitions used for analyses in the phylogenetic analysis program IQ-Tree (version 1.6.8) (Table S3), as described in the Methods section of the paper. The supplemental tables will also be linked to the article upon publication at the journal website.

To gather news articles from the web that discuss the Cochrane Review, we used Altmetric Explorer from Altmetric.com and retrieved articles on August 1, 2023. We selected all articles that were written in English, published in the United States, and had a publication date prior to March 10, 2023 (according to the “Mention Date” on Altmetric.com). This date is significant as it is when Cochrane issued a statement about the "misleading interpretation" of the Cochrane Review. The collection of news articles is presented in the Altmetric_data.csv file. The dataset contains the following data that we exported from Altmetric Explorer: - Publication date of the news article - Title of the news article - Source/publication venue of the news article - URL - Country We manually checked and added the following information: - Whether the article still exists - Whether the article is accessible - Whether the article is from the original source We assigned MAXQDA IDs to the news articles. News articles were assigned the same ID when they were (a) identical or (b) in the case of Article 207, closely paraphrased, paragraph by paragraph. Inaccessible items were assigned a MAXQDA ID based on their "Mention Title". For each article from Altmetric.com, we first tried to use the Web Collector for MAXQDA to download the article from the website and imported it into MAXQDA (version 22.7.0). If an article could not be retrieved using the Web Collector, we either downloaded the .html file or in the case of Article 128, retrieved it from the NewsBank database through the University of Illinois Library. We then manually extracted direct quotations from the articles using MAXQDA. We included surrounding words and sentences, and in one case, a news agency’s commentary, around direct quotations for context where needed. The quotations (with context) are the positions in our analysis. We also identified who was quoted. We excluded quotations when we could not identify who or what was being quoted. We annotated quotations with codes representing groups (government agencies, other organizations, and research publications) and individuals (authors of the Cochrane Review, government agency representatives, journalists, and other experts such as epidemiologists). The MAXQDA_data.csv file contains excerpts from the news articles that contain the direct quotations we identified. For each excerpt, we included the following information: - MAXQDA ID of the document from which the excerpt originates; - The collection date and source of the document; - The code with which the excerpt is annotated; - The code category; - The excerpt itself.

University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. https://doi.org/10.13012/B2IDB-8847584_V2
We used the following keywords files to identify categories for journals and conferences not in Scopus, for our STI 2023 paper "Assessing the agreement in retraction indexing across 4 multidisciplinary sources: Crossref, Retraction Watch, Scopus, and Web of Science". The first four text files each contains keywords/content words in the form: 'keyword1', 'keyword2', 'keyword3', .... The file title indicates the name of the category: file1: healthscience_words.txt file2: lifescience_words.txt file3: physicalscience_words.txt file4: socialscience_words.txt The first four files were generated from a combination of software and manual review in an iterative process in which we: - Manually reviewed venue titles were not able to automatically categorize using the Scopus categorization or extending it as a resource. - Iteratively reviewed uncategorized venue titles to manually curate additional keywords as content words indicating a venue title could be classified in the category healthscience, lifescience, physicalscience, or socialscience. We used English content words and added words we could automatically translate to identify content words. NOTE: Terminology with multiple potential meanings or contain non-English words that did not yield useful automatic translations e.g., (e.g., Al-Masāq) were not selected as content words. The fifth text file is a list of stopwords in the form: 'stopword1', 'stopword2, 'stopword3', ... file5: stopwords.txt This file contains manually curated stopwords from venue titles to handle non-content words like 'conference' and 'journal,' etc. This dataset is a revision of the following dataset: Version 1: Lee, Jou; Schneider, Jodi: Keywords for manual field assignment for Assessing the agreement in retraction indexing across 4 multidisciplinary sources: Crossref, Retraction Watch, Scopus, and Web of Science.

Nucleotide sequences from wild parsnip CYP71AJ4 (angelic in synthase. <a href ="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/EF191021">Genbank EF191021</a>) were obtained by Sanger sequencing. Seeds from individual plants from different populations were harvested to obtain corresponding cDNA. The cDNA was cloned and directly sequenced. Aminoacid translations were obtained using standard codon usage. Alignments of CYP71AJ4 sequences (involved in angular furanocoumarin biosynthesis) with as the reference sequence. Consistent amino acid variabilities were found between some populations. The relationship between sequencing variability and selective pressure is not yet known.

Corbicula spp. are one of the most prolific aquatic invasive species in the world and can have negative effects on aquatic ecosystems. We performed qualitative field surveys, examined literature accounts and natural history museum holdings, and accessed citizen science data sources to document the distribution of Corbicula in Mexico and shared drainages. Through 26 publications (N = 127 records), 312 museum holdings, and 446 iNaturalist records, we documented 885 records pertaining to Corbicula in Mexico and shared drainages. The first record of the species in Mexico was in 1969, and it has since been reported from 26 of the 32 Mexican states and most of the major river basins throughout the country. However, we suggest Corbicula is more prevalent in Mexico than we report in this work as it is often under sampled / under reported.

This dataset includes images and extracted centerlines from experiments looking at the formation and evolution of meltwater meandering channels on ice. The laboratory data includes centimeter- and millimeter-scale rivulets. Dataset also includes an image and corresponding centerlines from the Peterman Ice Island. All centerlines were manually digitized in Matlab but no distributable code was developed for the process. Once digitized, centerlines were smoothed and standardized following methods and routines developed by other authors (Zolezzi and Guneralp, 2016; Guneralp and Rhoads, 2008). Details about the preparation of the centerlines and processing with these methods is included in the dissertation by Fernández (2018) linked to this dataset. "Millimeter scale and Peterman Ice Island centerlines.pdf": This file includes the images of two mm-scale experimetns and the Peterman Ice Island image. Seventeen centerlines were digitized from the former and seven were digitized from the latter. Those centerlines are shown above the images themselves. "Centimeter scale rivulet images.pdf": This file includes images corresponding to all cm-scale centerlines used for the analysis presented in the dissertation by Fernandez (2018). Each image has a short caption indicating the run ID and the time at which it was captured. The images were used to extract centerlines to look at the planform evolution of cm-scale meltwater meandering rivulets on ice. Images include 26 centerlines from four different runs. "Meltwater meandering channel centerlines.xlsx": This spreadsheet contains the centerline data for all fifty centerlines. The workbook includes 51 sheets. The first 50 are related to each one of the channels. The mm scale and Peterman Ice Island ones are identified using the same IDs shown in "Millimeter scale and Peterman Ice Island centerlines.pdf". The cm-scale centerlines are identified by run ID and a number indicating the time in minutes (with t = 0 min being the time at which water started flowing over the ice block). The naming convention is also associated to the images in "Centimeter scale rivulet images.pdf". The last sheet in the workbook includes a summary of the channel widths measured from every image for each centerline. The 50 sheets with the centerline information have four columns each. The titles of the columns are X, Y, S, and C. X,Y are dimensionless coordinates of the centerline. S is dimensionless streamwise coordinate (location along the centerline). C is dimensionless curvature value. All these values were non-dimensionalized with the channel width. See Fernandez (2018), Zolezzi and Guneralp (2016), and Guneralp and Rhoads (2008) for more details regarding the process of smoothing, standardizing and non-dimensionalization of the centerline coordinates.

Detmer, Thomas (2022): ShelbyvilleZooplankton. University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. https://doi.org/10.13012/B2IDB-2467544_V1
Data characterize zooplankton in Shelbyville Reservoir, Illinois, United States of America. Zooplankton were sampled with a conical zooplankton net (0.5m diameter mouth) when water was deeper than 2 m and by grab sample when water was shallower. Zooplankton samples were concentrated and subsampled with a Hensen-Stempel pipette following protocols described in Detmer et al. (2019). Zooplankton were identified to the lowest feasible taxonomic unit according to Pennak (1989) and Thorp and Covich (2001) and were enumerated in a 1 mL Sedgewick-Rafter cell. Subsamples were analyzed until at least 200 individuals were enumerated from each site.were counted across for each of the three main taxonomic groups (cladocerans, copepods, and rotifers). Given the variation in zooplankton concentrations at each site, this process often lead to far more than 200 individuals being counted (x̄ = 269, min = 200, max = 487). A summary of the sample size from each site can be found in Supplementary Table S2. Abundances were corrected for volume of water filtered. For rare taxa (< 20 individuals per sample), all individuals were measured for length. For abundant taxa, length measurements were collected on the first 20 organisms of each abundant taxon encountered in a subsample. Dry mass was calculated from equations for microcrustaceans, rotifers, and Chaoborus sp. (Rosen ,1981; Botrell et al., 1976; Dumont and Balvay, 1979).
