• Functional Traits and Trait-Mediated Interactions: Connecting Community-Level Interactions with Ecosystem Functioning
• Plant origin asymmetrically impacts feeding guilds and life stages driving community structure of herbivorous arthropods
• Non-native plants reduce abundance, richness, and host specialization in lepidopteran communities
• Impact of native plants on bird and butterfly biodiversity in suburban landscapes
• Influence of plant defenses and nutrients on trophic control of ecosystems
• Not all non‐natives are equally unequal: reductions in herbivore β‐diversity depend on phylogenetic similarity to native plant community
• Acceleration or deceleration of litter decomposition by herbivory depends on nutrient availability through intraspecific differences in induced plant resistance traits
• Linking Plasticity in Goldenrod Anti-herbivore Defense to Population, Community, and Ecosystem Processes
• Nutrient supply alters goldenrod's induced response to herbivory
• Demystifying dominant species
• Tree Diversity Reduces Fungal Endophyte Richness and Diversity in a Large-Scale Temperate Forest Experiment
• Tree diversity promotes growth of late successional species despite increasing deer damage in a restored forest
• Invasive grass ( Microstegium vimineum ) indirectly benefits spider community by subsidizing available prey
• Current street tree communities reflect race‐based housing policy and modern attempts to remedy environmental injustice
• Rhizobial diversity impacts soybean resistance, but not tolerance, to herbivory during drought
• Positive tree diversity effects on arboreal spider abundance are tied to canopy cover in a forest experiment
• Urbanization as a disrupter and facilitator of insect herbivore behaviors and life cycles
• Invasive grass (Microstegium vimineum) indirectly benefits spider community by subsidizing available prey
• Plant size, latitude, and phylogeny explain within-population variability in herbivory
• Legacy effects of long‐term autumn leaf litter removal slow decomposition rates and reduce soil carbon in suburban yards
• Evaluating the Impacts of Grass and Legume Living Mulches on Arthropod Pests and Beneficials, Yield, and Fruit Quality in Cantaloupe
• Evaluating the impacts of grass and legume living mulches on arthropod pests and beneficials, yield, and fruit quality in cantaloupe
