Description
Number of Azteca ants recruited by leaf extracts of
their host plant , Cecropia trees.
Usage

Format
A data frame with 21 rows and 3 variables:
- plant
plant id, integer
- extract.new
number of recruited ants in the leaf that received drops of smashed new leaves extract
- extract.old
number of recruited ants in the leaf that received drops of smashed old leaves extract
Details
The ant colonies live in the hollow
trunk of Cecropia and can detect and expel leaf-chewing insects.
To test if this response is more intense in young leaves, drops of extract of smashed young and old leaves
were poured in two neighbor leaves of the same plant. After 7 minutes the number of recruited ants in each leaf was recorded.
