dc.description.abstractThis paper reports the results of experimental defoliation of two common matorral species: Lithraea caustica and Colliguaya odorifera. L. caustica and C. odorifera are the matorral species previously shown to exhibit the highest and lowest levels of natural defoliation by browsing. Experimental defoliation was performed at four levels: 0% (controls), 25%, 66%, and 100%. C. odorifera exhibited vegetative responses stronger than controls only in the two highest levels of defoliation (66% and 100%), whereas L. caustica responded vigorously at the 25% and 100% levels. The results are related to the observed position of both species in the matorral community and their relative defoliation risks by natural and introduced herbivores.
