“…In contrast, plant diseases caused by viruses, bacteria or fungi, as well as herbivory are common biotic effects that cause vegetation mass loss (Bale et al., 2002 ; Bebber et al., 2014 ; Garrett et al., 2006 ; Pautasso et al., 2012 ; Ristaino et al., 2021 ; Singh et al., 2023 ; Tibpromma et al., 2021 ).
