  • Immunogenetic diversity and haemosporidian parasitization in European bluethroats (Luscinia svecica): do diverse genes warrant fewer parasites?
    The health and fitness of vertebrates are constantly challenged by environmental stresses, which include exposure to diseases that pose significant evolutionary pressures on immune genes. The bluethroat (Luscinia svecica), has been extensively studied for its haemosporidian parasite diversity across Europe showing a high diversity and prevalence rate. Given possible evolutionary pressure exerted by these pathogens, the present study used high-throughput amplicon sequencing to explore the genetic diversity and selection mechanisms of three immunity genes (MHC I exon 3, TLR3 and TLR4) in three European bluethroat populations. Specifically, we seek to (1) characterize the genetic diversity of these immunity genes, (2) detect selection signatures shaping their diversity, and (3) investigate the relationship between these immunity genes and haemosporidian parasites (Plasmodium and Leucocytozoon). Selection analysis was conducted using FUBAR and SLAC methods, whereas GLM regression was employed to explore the correlation between MHC genes and haemosporidian parasites. Despite geographical and ecological differences, nucleotide and haplotype diversities were similar across all populations. Most frequent haplotypes were found to be shared by both red-spotted (L. s. svecica) and white-spotted (L. s. cyanecula) bluethroat subspecies. The “insular” Krkonoše population, despite being biogeographically peripheral and experiencing minor inbreeding, did not show significantly reduced immunogenetic diversity. Selection analysis revealed a higher presence of purifying selection in TLR genes and a combination of purifying and diversifying selection in the MHC gene, reflecting their evolutionary constraints and functional importance, while haemosporidian parasite pressure was not a major driver of genetic diversity.

  • Distinct mechanisms of organic carbon accumulation in cropland and bare land under different nitrogen gradients revealed by a 16-year field experiment
    1. Research Hypotheses: This study was designed to test the central hypothesis that the mechanisms governing soil organic carbon (SOC) accumulation differ under long-term nitrogen gradient fertilization between cropland and bare land in the Fluvo-Aquic soil region of the North China Plain. 2. Data Description: This dataset comprises crop yield data collected annually from 2009 to 2025 across 21 experimental plots, alongside soil sample analysis data obtained in 2025 from 42 experimental plots. Key measured indicators include: Soil Carbon Fractions: Soil Organic Carbon (SOC), Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC), particulate organic carbon (POC), mineral-associated organic carbon (MAOC), nonprotected organic carbon (Non-C), physically protected organic carbon (Phy-C), chemically protected organic carbon (Che-C), biochemically protected organic carbon (Bio-C). Other Soil Properties: Total Nitrogen (TN) and pH. 3. Notable Findings: Our analysis revealed distinct regulatory pathways for SOC accumulation. In cropland systems, Bio-C exerted a dominant influence on POC, which subsequently governed SOC sequestration. Conversely, in bare land systems, the limited presence of Che-C attenuated the role of POC, resulting in MAOC serving as the principal regulator of SOC dynamics. 4. Data Interpretation and Reuse Potential: The data are presented in a structured Excel format, readily accessible for statistical analysis. Users can leverage this dataset to compare the effects of nitrogen application rates and land use types on soil carbon pools and physicochemical properties. It is suitable for calibrating biogeochemical models, refining regional SOC stock estimates, and evaluating the efficacy of land management strategies aimed at enhancing soil carbon sequestration.

    This dataset was developed as part of the research described in: L.Santopietro, F. Pietrapertosa, A.Pilogallo, M. Salvia Current efforts in regional climate planning: a dataset from Italian NUTS2 regions (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.dib.2024.111223) M. Salvia, A.Pilogallo, L.Santopietro, F. Pietrapertosa A methodological framework for assessing regional climate efforts. Learning from its application in Italy (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jclepro.2024.144299) This dataset focuses on the regional climate planning of the 20 Italian regions (NUTS2 level) as of January 2024. It provides key data and information on the regional climate planning (both mitigation and adaptation), the contents of additional dataset (EUROSTAT and Climate Indicators for Italian RegiOns) and regional climate legislation. It is organised into seven spreadsheets containing the following data respectively: 1. Metadata description: List of the sheets structuring the dataset, with a rationale per each colum and section 2.
