Raw data used in the analysis at the microcosm and the species levels

Raw data from the microcosm experiment using six plant species, belowground herbivores, and detritivores under normal and drought conditions. The data include plant biomass (shoots, roots, dead, and total) at the microcosm level as well as at the species level. Plant survival per species is also included. The weight at the beginning and at the end of the experiment of each belowground herbivore and detritivore has been also included.
