Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Standing crop of Sasa communities is similar to or larger than that of other herb communities.
- Observation Marked differences among Sasa communities were found in standing crop, community height and culm longevity.
- Observation Marked differences among Sasa communities were found in the number of culms.
- Observation Leaf area index of the Sasa communities was 4.5-5.4.
- Observation The extinction coefficient of light in the Sasa communities was 0.7-0.9.
- Observation Light transmissibility of a Sasa leaf was about 10%.
- Observation The amount and vertical distribution pattern of leaves were more or less the same among the Sasa communities.
- Observation Light intensities at the ground surface of Sasa communities were extremely low with small deviation.
- Association The extremely low light at the ground surface is judged fatal to seedlings of many species.
