Field site description The study site is part of the Loma Ridge Global Change Experiment situated near Irvine, California, USA (33°44′N, 117°42′E, 365 m elevation). The climate is Mediterranean with mean annual temperature of 17 °C and mean annual precipitation of 325 mm. Most precipitation falls between November and April, stimulating plant growth, and a summer drought lasts […] More

Georeferencing and aligning sequence data We obtained mitochondrial sequence data for terrestrial mammals from GeneBank and BOLD. GenBank data were downloaded on 16 May 2017 using the Entrez Utilities Unix Command Line. Data from BOLD were downloaded on 25 May 2017 directly from BOLD webpage using the application-platform interface (API) (http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/resources/api). Our mammalian database consisted […] More
Application of three previously reported, popular CHD1-targeting primer sets for molecular sexing of the Japanese murrelet, and preparation of a new Japanese murrelet species-specific primer set The three frequently used CHD1-targeting primer sets were applied for molecular sexing in the Japanese murrelet. Two of these three primer sets, 2250 F/2718 R and CDH1F/CDH1R, produced electrophoretic patterns similar […] More

The microcosm experiments were conducted with 2000 m deep water samples from the western Pacific Ocean, a typical oligotrophic gyre (Fig. 1 and Supplementary Fig. 1). The in situ prokaryotic and viral abundances decreased from 0.70 and 6.17 × 106 particles mL−1 in surface waters to 0.49 and 1.70 × 106 particles mL−1 at 2000 m. With a series […] More
