Abstract

Examines whether leaf abscission rate in flooded plants is higher than in non-flooded plants and whether galled leaves have higher probability of abscission than non-galled leaves. Abundance and survivorship of Lopesia on flooded plants; Size of galled leaves compared with non-galled leaves; Distribution of leaf sizes between flooded and non-flooded plants.
