Effects of plant functional group removal on caterpillars (Gynaephora alpherakii) performance and plant production in an alpine meadow by Rui Cao, Han Chen, Jingran Cai, Chen Hang, Ziyu Zhang, Yingchun Miao, Peng Xie

“…To elucidate these, we conducted a series of experiments consisting of (1) a two-factor field experiment, where we manipulated the forb abundance and caterpillar presence to assess their interactive effects on plant productivity and caterpillar performance, (2) a field complementary shelter addition experiment, designed to isolate and evaluate the effects of microclimatic changes resulting from forb removal, and (3) a confirmatory microcosm experiment to validate the field findings under controlled by monitoring the herbivory patterns. Our results show that forb removal significantly decreased the aboveground plant biomass (APB) by 41.3%, but did not affect the APB of sedges. …”
