Weak latitudinal gradients in insect herbivory for dominant rangeland grasses of North America

Weak latitudinal gradients in insect herbivory for dominant rangeland grasses of North America

Abstract Patterns of insect herbivory may follow predictable geographical gradients, with greater herbivory at low latitudes. However, biogeographic studies of insect herbivory often do not account for multiple abiotic factors (e.g., precipitation and soil nutrients) that could underlie gradients. W...
