Neotoma lepida (woodrat) browses on the leaves of Juniperus osteosperma near Dugway, UT. A comparison between woodrat (N. lepida ) browsed and not-browsed Juniperus osteosperma trees revealed that the percentage of total volatile leaf oil yields was not significantly different between browsed trees (2.22%, 24 hr dist., DM-basis) and not-browsed trees (2.47%). On a percent total oil basis, α-pin...

Facilitation enables plants to improve their fitness in stressful environments. The overall impact of plant-plant interactions on the population dynamics of protégées is the net result of both positive and negative effects that may act simultaneously along the plant life cycle, and depends on the environmental context. This study evaluates the impact of the nurse plant Juniperus sabina on diffe...
