Table 1.

Twelve host species used in the removal experiment. Shown are the sequence in which species were lost under fertilization (frequency data) and warming, the disease susceptibility index, and the functional groups

Species Loss sequence under fertilization Loss sequence under warming Disease Susceptibility index Functional group
Ligularia virgaurea IV‐12 IV‐10 7.546 Perennial forb
Anemone rivularis IV‐11 III‐8 7.283 Perennial forb
Elymus nutans IV‐10 I‐3 3.168 Perennial grass
Kobresia humilis III‐9 I‐2 1.492 Perennial grass
Saussurea stella III‐8 III‐9 1.694 Annual forb
Thermopsis lanceolala III‐7 III‐7 2.708 Perennial N‐fixer
Anemone trullifolia II‐6 IV‐11 3.253 Perennial forb
Potentilla potaninii II‐5 IV‐12 2.508 Perennial forb
Saussurea nigrescens II‐4 II‐5 4.837 Perennial forb
Koeleria litvinowii I‐3 I‐1 2.444 Perennial grass
Festuca sinensis I‐2 II‐4 1.250 Perennial grass
Astragalus polycladus I‐1 II‐6 0.750 Perennial N‐fixer

“I” means the most, while “IV” means the least, vulnerable to loss under nitrogen addition or warming.
