摘要

According to available evidence, leaf gallers have only minor impacts on their plant hosts. We hypothesised that the relatively large leaf gallers formed by Eupontania sawflies on small, creeping arctic-alpine willows have a strong influence on their host plants. In this study, we specifically tested the effects of leaf galler (Eupontania aquilonis) on the survival and growth of dwarf willow (Salix herbacea) in a mountain snow-bed in northern Finland. We marked galled, leaves-removed and untreated ramets in experimental blocks. In the following year, we measured the growth and survival of the ramets. The mortality of galled shoots was approx. 40% higher, and the mortality of galled ramets approx. 25% higher than in the control ramets and in the leaf-removal treatment. The leaf biomass of galled ramets and the number of leaves were significantly less in galled ramets than in untreated or leaves-removed ramets. It is possible that galling causes fatal resource depletion of shoots in its host plant. The results show that leaf gallers are ecologically more influential than previously thought.
