Ontogenetic responses of four plant species to additive and interactive effects of land‐use history, canopy structure and herbivory

Summary The strength of interactions among species is often highly variable in space and time, and a major challenge in understanding context‐dependent effects of herbivores lies in disentangling habitat‐mediated from herbivore‐mediated effects on plant performance. We conducted a landscape‐scale experiment that manipulated light availability in woodlands with either a history of agricultural use or no history of agricultural use and coupled...
