Impact of ungulate grazing on leaf litter palatability for millipedes (Diplopoda).
Original language description
Immobile plants use various strategies to defend themselves against herbivores such as production of non-palatable or hardly decomposable chemical components in leaves. The objective of this study was to assess whether these biochemical changes persist through shedding of leaves and can affect litter palatability for decomposers. Millipedes were used as a model group of decomposers for an experimental study focusing on this aspect of ungulate - plant - soil invertebrate relationship. Leaf litter and millipedes (Glomeris klugii, Glomeris hexasticha, Glomeris connexa, Julus scandinavius, Leptoiulus proximus, Megaphyllum projectum, and Unciger foetidus) were collected at forest localities in the Křivoklátsko Protected Landscape Area and Biosphere Reserve,Czech Republic. Palatability of leaves from two different plots was compared. The first plot had been protected for 12 years from ungulate browsing and grazing (fenced), the second plot was an adjacent forest under permanent high pressur
