Plant-Herbivorous Insect Interaction Networks and Stability Analysis

Raw data for constructing plant–herbivorous insect interaction networks and calculating interaction indicators. The dataset includes R code for statistical analyses evaluating bidirectional relationships between trophic interactions and ecosystem stability. It was authored by Yin Wang and last updated on May 16, 2026.

Use Cases

• Construct plant–herbivorous insect interaction networks based on raw interaction data.
• Calculate ecological interaction indicators likely derived from network metrics.
• Perform statistical analyses on bidirectional relationships between trophic interactions and stability using the provided R code.
• Reproduce the statistical methods from the associated research.

Strengths

• Includes raw data for network construction and indicator calculation.
• Provides the complete R code used for statistical analyses.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
