First, in this chapter, those traits that characterize individual pasture genotypes and affect competitiveness through the capture and utilization of light, water and nutrients are reviewed. This is followed by the broader question: 'How far does genotype regulate or influence competitiveness and competitive interrelationships in pasture mixtures?' Finally, the chapter addressed if the relative competitiveness of associated genotypes depends on how well they are adapted to the environment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
