Dataset Search Results

The Delt_Comb.NEX text file contains the original data used in the phylogenetic analyses of Zahniser & Dietrich, 2013 (European Journal of Taxonomy, 45: 1-211). 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 nine lines of the file indicate the file type (Nexus), that 152 taxa were analyzed, that a total of 3971 characters were analyzed, the format of the data, and specification for two symbols used in the dataset. There are four datasets separated into blocks, one each for: 28S rDNA gene, Histone H3 gene, morphology, and insertion/deletion characters scored based on the alignment of the 28S rDNA dataset. Descriptions of the morphological characters and more details on the species and specimens included in the dataset are provided in the publication using this dataset. A text file, Delt_morph_char.txt, is available here that states the morphological characters and characters states that were scored in the Delt_Comb.NEX dataset. The original DNA sequence data are available from NCBI GenBank under the accession numbers indicated in publication. Chromatogram files for each sequencing read are available from the first author upon request.

These data were collected for an experiment examining effects of neonicotinoid (clothianidin) presence on hover fly (Diptera: Syrphidae) behavior. Hover flies of two species (Eristalis arbustorum and Toxomerus marginatus) were offered a choice to feed on artificial flowers laced with sucrose solution that was either contaminated (CLO) or not contaminated (CON) with clothianidin. Two different concentrations of clothianidin in 0.5 M sucrose solution were tested: 2.5 ppb and 150 ppb. We conducted four sets of 10 trials, each trial set examining a different combination of species and clothianidin dose. Across 6 hours of video for each trial we recorded 1) number of visits to each flower that resulted in feeding, and 2) amount of time spent feeding during each visit. We found that while neither species fed significantly longer on either of the solutions, E. arbustorum appeared to avoid flowers with clothianidin particularly at high rates. In the paper, we attribute this avoidance response, partially, to hover fly-visible spectral differences between the two flower choices and discuss potential implications for field and lab-based studies. In the enclosed zip file we have included all data for this project and code scripts from R. * Note: Data folder contains 4 files (instead of 6 as mentioned in Readme): e.tenax_photoreceptors.csv; hoverfly_data_UPDATE.csv; number_visits_UPDATE.csv; and Original 2018 hover fly choice test data_Clem2020.xlsx

Using several high-confidence SNP datasets from various species, allelic read depth from a typical RAD-seq dataset was simulated, then genotypes were estimated with polyRAD and other software and compared to the true genotypes, yielding error estimates.

The Allan Lab has published a Fluidigm pipeline online. This is the url: https://github.com/HPCBio/allan-fluidigm-pipeline. This url includes a tutorial for running the pipeline. However it does not have test datasets yet. This tarball hosted at the Illinois Data Bank is the dataset that completes the github tutorial. It includes inputs (custom database of tick pathogens and fluidigm raw reads) and output files (tables of samples with taxonomic classifications).

The data set consists of Illumina sequences derived from 48 sediment samples, collected in 2015 from Lake Michigan and Lake Superior for the purpose of inventorying the fungal diversity in these two lakes. DNA was extracted from ca. 0.5g of sediment using the MoBio PowerSoil DNA isolation kits following the Earth Microbiome protocol. PCR was completed with the fungal primers ITS1F and fITS7 using the Fluidigm Access Array. The resulting amplicons were sequenced using the Illumina Hi-Seq2500 platform with rapid 2 x 250nt paired-end reads. The enclosed data sets contain the forward read files for both primers, both fixed-header index files, and the associated map files needed to be processed in QIIME.

All data presented in the manuscript published in the Journal of Geophysical Research-Biogeosciences by Stuchiner et al. 2025, "Hot or not? An evaluation of methods for identifying hot moments of nitrous oxide emissions from soils." This includes hourly N2O flux measurements from 20 autochambers from May 2022 to April 2023 in a maize field in central Illinois, and various metrics used to assess hot moments that are evaluated in the manuscript. Note that chamber 5 for each sampling node is sampled from a deep soil collar (50 cm depth) that excludes roots for the purpose of measuring heterotrophic respiration rates.

This dataset is from a study of a simulated angling tournament livewell holding in June of 2023 on Largemouth Bass (Micropterus nigricans) on Clinton Lake, Illinois. Fish were collected via electrofishing, weighed, measured and assessed for physical injury prior to receiving a commercially available cull tag and being placed in a simulated livewell. After a six hour livewell holding period, fish were removed from the livewell assessed for physical injury and then assessed for reflex action mortality predictors prior to being placed in a net pen for 3 days of observation. This dataset includes, weights, total lengths, physical injury scores, and reflex action mortality predictor scores for Largemouth Bass and water quality parameters of livewells and the lake in net pens.

A population genetics study was conducted on three plant taxa in the genus Physaria that are found on the Kaibab Plateau (Arizona, USA). Physaria kingii subsp. kaibabensis is endemic to the Kaibab Plateau, and is of conservation concern because of its rarity, limited range, and potential threats to its long-term persistence. Additionally, the taxon is a candidate for federal protection under the Endangered Species Act. It was not clear how genetically isolated P. k. subsp. kaibabensis was from Physaria kingii subsp. latifolia, which is a widespread subspecies found throughout the southwestern USA, including on the Kaibab Plateau. Additionally, other authors have suggested that P. k. subsp. kaibabensis may hybridize with Physaria arizonica, a different species that is also widespread and found on and off the Kaibab Plateau. We conducted a population genetics study of all three groups to better determine the conservation status of P. k. subsp. kaibabensis. Genetic data are in the form of nuclear DNA microsatellites for 13 loci (all apparently diploid). Additionally, we have included location information for the collection sites. We collected tissue samples from on and off the Kaibab Plateau. The overall findings are shared in a manuscript being submitted for peer-review.
