There are a lot of lianas, or vines.

里有很多藤蔓植物。

Bamboos and grasses are their favourite food, but saplings, tree leaves and twisted lianas are all taken, with little care.

竹子跟草它们最爱吃的食物，但幼树、树叶及藤蔓植物也会被它们。

This is the liana or vine that connects heaven and earth.

接天地的藤蔓。

So having this removal of the competitors and lianas should have the opposite benefits, right?

因此，清除些竞争者和藤本植物应该会产生相反的好处，对吧？

The rest of its body lies within the tissues of a liana, on which it feeds.

它身体的其余部分位于藤本植物的组织内，它以藤本植物为食。

And also the lianas, so these are woody vines that colonize their crowns, they're dying as well.

还有藤本植物，些侵占它们树冠的木质藤蔓，它们也在死亡。

And this is important because we know the neighboring competitors and the lianas that colonize their crowns have negative effects on these trees.

点很重要，因为已知邻近的竞争者和那些在其树冠上定居的藤本植物对些树木有负面影响。
