- Intervention effect C. annuum had little effect on A. lividus, reducing its dry weight by 31.3% at a 5:1 ratio of C. annuum to A. lividus.
- Observation Relative yield analysis showed a competitive advantage of C. annuum over A. lividus.
- Observation The relative crowding coefficient of both Capsicum annuum and Amaranthus lividus changed significantly in the presence of the other plant at any ratio.
- Observation The aggressivity of C. annuum was higher at its lower proportion.
- Observation C. annuum was more aggressive towards itself than towards A. lividus when its density increased.
