Correction: Herbivore cues and plant damage-associated compounds jointly alter seed germination and seedling herbivory

Correction: Oecologia (2025) 208:1 10.1007/s00442-025-05831-z

In this article Fig(s) 1, 2 and 3 appeared incorrectly and have now been corrected in the original publication. For completeness and transparency, the old incorrect versions are displayed below.

Incorrect version:

Fig. 1 Effect of exposing B. nigra seeds to control (soil and water only), kairomone only, DAMP only, or both kairomone and DAMP prior to and during germination. Seeds exposed to both kairomone and DAMP germinated significantly faster

Fig. 2 Effect of exposing B. nigra seeds and seedlings to control (soil and water only), kairomone only, DAMP only, or both kairomone and DAMP. There was no significant difference in aboveground, below-ground, or total biomass for seedlings at the time of harvest

Fig. 3 Proportion of plants eaten by S. exigua larvae when allowed to choose between leaves from the four treatments. A Leaves from control versus DAMP-only plants, B leaves from control versus kairomone-only, C leaves from control versus kairomone + DAMP plants. S. exigua did not differentiate between control plants and single treatment plants, but did prefer control plants over those treated with both pre-attack cues. *p < 0.05
