Bottom-up and top-down effects of tree species diversity on leaf insect herbivory (2017)
Journal Article
Castagneyrol, B., Bonal, D., Damien, M., Jactel, H., Meredieu, C., Muiruri, E. W., & Barbaro, L. (2017). Bottom-up and top-down effects of tree species diversity on leaf insect herbivory. Ecology and Evolution, 7(10), 3520-3531. https://doi.org/10.1002/ece3.2950

The diversity of plant neighbors commonly results in direct, bottom-up effects on herbivore ability to locate their host, and in indirect effects on herbivores involving changes in plant traits and a top-down control by their enemies. Yet, the relati... Read More about Bottom-up and top-down effects of tree species diversity on leaf insect herbivory.
