Functional responses
We assigned all identified species to one of the following guilds:
herbivore, parasitoid, predator, or saprophagous (Table S13). We
characterized guild patterns using two functional indices, namely
Functional Richness and Rao’s quadratic entropy, and the
community-weighted mean of each gild (CWM) (Botta-Dukát, 2005; Lavorel
et al., 2007) (function dbFD , package ‘FD’ (Laliberté et al.,
2014)). We assessed guilds’ responses to the community dynamics
throughout the treatments, described by the NMDS ordination (functionenvit , package ‘vegan’), evaluating the strength of these
relationships through the squared correlation coefficient (r2).
