Deer‐mediated changes in environment compound the direct impacts of herbivory on understorey plant communities

In forests of eastern North America, white‐tailed deer ( O docoileus virginianus ) can directly affect, via herbivory, the presence, abundance and reproductive success of many plant species. In addition, deer indirectly influence understorey communities by altering environmental conditions. To exami...
