Table 1. Effects of feeding treatments on biomass and seed production in teasels Dipsacus fullonum (mean+-sd ); data have been pooled over two populations and two water removal treatments, and (for biomass and seed mass) were log-transformed, averaged then back-transformed.
| Feeding treatment: | Site | ||||
| Insect fed | control | Insect removal | Site 1 | Site 2 | |
| Biomass (total), g | 57.9+−3.0 A | 46.8+−2.7 A | 55.8+−3.3 A | 22.4+-1.9a | 127.2+-2.0b |
