Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Meloidogyne hapla enhanced self-thinning in alfalfa.
- Observation Alfalfa stand density decreased exponentially with time.
- Intervention effect M. hapla reduced alfalfa stand density by 62%.
- Association Mean plant weights rose 2.59 times faster without M. hapla as stand density declined.
- Association Changes in stand density explained 65% of yield variation.
- Association Average individual stem weight explained 85% of yield variation.
- Association Yield suppression generally increased over time.
- Association Yield suppression generally increased with nematode population density.
- Mechanism Yield suppression was attributed mainly to declining plant numbers.
- Mechanism Yield suppression was also attributed to suppression in individual plant weights.
