Description
Experimental manipulation of leaf damage combined with air flow restriction to test volatile-mediated anti-herbivory communication across elevation gradients. Uses artificial leaf clipping with bagging treatments to isolate the role of airborne chemical signals.
Typical Equipment
- clipping tools
- opaque plastic bags
- plastic ties
- measuring device for distances
- NCSS statistical software
Output Measurements
- distance to herbivore damage
- number of herbivore-damaged leaves
- herbivore damage distribution patterns
