“Average” indicates feedback across all six species in the study, including the invader. Values are drawn from within-light treatment data subsets, and therefore do not speak to the significance of the light × feedback interaction from the full model, but rather to feedback measured within one light environment. Bold values indicate significance at the level of p = 0.05.
