Plant species richness promotes the decoupling of leaf and root defence traits while species-specific responses in physical and chemical defences are rare.

However, without FDR correction, the production of defensive phytochemicals within the terpenoids ( P ‐value = 0.0490) and shikimates and phenylpropanoids ( P ‐value = 0.0745) pathways in leaves showed a significant or marginally significant increase along the SR gradient, for the feature sum parameter of the two pathways.
