Interactions between large‐scale and local factors influence seed predation rates and seed loss
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 6, June 2023., 2023 Herbivores often have highly variable impacts on plant fecundity. We examined how density‐dependent seed predation at local scales and regional differences in community productivity are associated with variation in the magnitude of pre‐dispersal seed predation on Monarda fistulosa. Our findings show how large‐scale factors can interact with local‐scale
