Competitive effect and response in four annual plants
Material type: ArticleLanguage: En Publication details: 1987Subject(s): In: Journal of Ecology v. 75, no. 4, p. 1131-1143609922Summary: Neighbourhood experiments were used to compare the magnitudes of competitiveeffect and competitive response using all pairwise combinations of Papaver rhoeas, wheat and oats as neighbour species, and these 3 species plus Chenopodium album as target species. Over 79% of the variance in target wt was explained by a simple hyperbolic function of neighbour wt or density for 7 out of the 12 species combinations. For all 4 target species, the 2 grass neighbour species always had statistically equivalent competitive effects that were generally greater than the effects of P. rhoeas. For all 3 neighbour species, P.rhoeas was the weakest competitor inItem type | Current library | Collection | Call number | Copy number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds | |
