Weaker plant-enemy interactions decrease tree seedling diversity with edge-effects in a fragmented tropical forest

In fragmented forests, tree diversity declines near edges but the ecological processes underlying this loss of diversity remain poorly understood. Theory predicts that top-down regulation of seedling recruitment by insect herbivores and fungal pathogens contributes to maintaining tree diversity in f...
