Plateau pikas lead to higher rhizome and root-derived bud densities and their contribution to total belowground bud density in alpine grasslands
Plant belowground buds are important agents for examining the effects of small semi-fossorial herbivores on plant population regeneration in perennial grasslands. In this study, we used the plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) as a focally small semi-fossorial herbivore to investigate its effects on ti...
