Abstract
Herbivory plays an important role in the growth and reproduction of plants. We studied the impacts of herbivory on Pseuderanthemum variabile by measuring height, biomass, and photosynthesis. Preliminary observations indicate that increased levels of simulated herbivory were detrimental to the photosynthetic efficiency and overall health of the plants.
