Insect herbivores increase mortality and reduce tree seedling growth of some species in temperate forest canopy gaps
Insect herbivores help maintain forest diversity through selective predation on seedlings of vulnerable tree species. Although the role of natural enemies has been well-studied in tropical systems, relatively few studies have experimentally manipulated insect abundance in temperate forests and track...
