Description of files containing the data and analyses from "The distribution of fruit and seed toxicity during development for eleven Neotropical trees and vines in Central Panama" by Noelle G. Beckman (2013) PLOS ONE. See Beckman (2013) for description of methods and analyses.

The data are in the file 'data_PLOSONE.R'. R code used to analyze the data are in the file 'Script_Analyses', and functions used in the analyses are in the file 'Script_Functions'.

The data file (data_PLOSONE.R) contains a list named 'bioassay_data' that contains the following:
	
	- data_info: Description of each extract ID 

	- data_Fusarium5: data for activity of extracts against Fusarium hyphal growth at highest concentration tested (0.17 mg/mg) and negative controls.   
	- data_Phoma5: data for activity of extracts against Phoma hyphal growth at highest concentration tested (0.17 mg/mg) and negative controls.   
	- data_Artemia1: data for activity of extracts against Aretmia survivorship at highest concentration tested (1 ug/ml) and negative controls.   
	
	- dataFusariumAll: data for activity of extracts against Fusarium hyphal growth at all concentrations tested used in the estimation of ED_50.
	- dataPhomaAll: data for activity of extracts against Phoma hyphal growth at all concentrations tested used in the estimation of ED_50.
	- dataArtemiaAll: data for activity of extracts against Artemia hyphal growth at all concentrations tested used in the estimation of ED_50.

	Column headers are:		
		"Treatment" contains the extract ID's for each respective bioassay and is the extract ID for the fungal bioassays in data_info 
	       "TreatmentBSB" contains the extract ID's for the brine shrimp bioassay in data_info

	 	"Species" contains species names
		"Stage" is fruit developmental stage
		"ActualFruitParts" are the fruit parts used (i.e. seed, diaspore, pericarp, capsule, or pulp).
		"Dispersal.Mode" is the dispersal mode of each species
		"SPP" are the codes for each species name 
		"Fruit.Part" contains the category of the fruit part used in analyses. Extracts from the seed or diaspore are categorized as seed extracts, and those from the pericarp, capsule, or pulp as pericarp extracts.
		 

		"Concentration.MGML" is the concentration of dry mass of extract per volume of medium.
		"Concentration.MGMG" is the concentration of dry mass of extract per agar.
		"Dish.Nu" is the number for each Petri dish in fungal bioassays.
		"Lane" is the lane on which fungi grew within a Petri dish
		"Growth" is the hyphal growth in millimeters for each fungus 
		"RelGrowth" is the hyphal growth within a lane divided by the mean hyphal growth of negative controls within a Petri dish

		"Tray.NU" is the number for each 48-well plate in the brine shrimp bioassay.
		"Vial.Nu" is the number of the well within each plate of the brine shrimp bioassay
		"mortality" is the number of dead shrimp at the end of the experiment
		"alive" is the number of alive shrimp at the end of the experiment
		"Prop.Alive" is the proportion of shrimp that are alive at the end of the experiment
