This repository contains all the code required to reproduce the results of two manuscripts:

A database of egg size and shape from more than 6,700 insect species. Samuel H. Church, Seth Donoughe, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros, Cassandra G. Extavour Scientific Data 6, 104 (2019) https://doi.org/10.1038/s41597-019-0049-y; bioRxiv https://doi.org/10.1101/471953

Insect egg size and shape evolve with ecology but not developmental rate. Samuel H. Church*, Seth Donoughe*, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros, Cassandra G. Extavour Nature 571, 58-62 (2019) https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1302-4; bioRxiv https://doi.org/10.1101/471946

Contents:

analyze_data/

This directory contains all the R code and data tables required to reproduce the results in https://doi.org/10.1101/471946.

create_database/

This directory contains the code used in creating the database from published descriptions in the literature.

phylogeny/

This directory contains the scripts used to generate the phylogeny for insect genera present in the egg database

egg database, Nov 2018

egg_database.tsv

This tsv file is the version of the egg database used to analyze the data in November 2018, and is necessary for running the scripts in analyze_data. It contains all of the raw measurements extracted from publications.

A version of the database containing calculated values (e.g. volume, aspect ratio) is included with the file egg_database_final_values.tsv.

The sources for the egg database are provided in bibliography_egg_database.bib
