Mean dietary intake (± SEM) of Oedaleus asiaticus (from fourth-instar to adult) under manipulated ratios of the three plant species. a Relative consumption of the three plants (from fourth-instar to adult). b Constant S. krylovii biomass, altered L. chinensis and A. frigida biomass. c Constant L. chinensis biomass, altered biomass for the other two plant species. d Constant A. frigida biomass, altered biomass of the other two plant species. The horizontal axis of b–d indicates a plant composition that consisted of S. krylovii, L. chinensis, and A. frigida. Significant differences marked by different lowercase letters, based on Tukey’s HSD at P < 0.05
