Other claims from this paper (11)
- Association Maize dry weight declined significantly with increasing weed or maize density, especially without fertilization.
- Association Maize total leaf area declined significantly with increasing weed or maize density, especially without fertilization.
- Observation At high Rottboellia densities, root biomass allocation was 38% greater than stem and leaf allocation regardless of fertilization.
- Observation Without fertilization, Rottboellia biomass allocation was greater in leaves than roots and stems at high plant densities.
- Observation Relative crowding coefficients indicated a competitive advantage for maize over Rottboellia.
- Association Relative yield values did not demonstrate mutual allelopathy between maize and Rottboellia.
- Association Increasing Rottboellia density significantly reduced its total leaf area more than increasing maize density.
- Association Increasing Rottboellia density significantly reduced its total dry weight more than increasing maize density.
- Intervention effect High maize density significantly reduced Rottboellia total leaf area.
- Association Maize total leaf area reductions were greater without fertilization.
- Observation The authors concluded that fertilization affected maize more than plant density.
