Abstract:Background: Numerous studies have described junglerice (Echinochloa colona) competitiveness against crops, but its behavior concerning plant density as an outcome of intraspecific competition has not been well documented. Objective: This study aimed to characterize morphology based on population density and determine the degree of density dependence. Methods: Junglerice was grown in field conditions in a range of densities from 0.25 to 300 plants m -2 . Plant height and width, tillering, aerial dry weight, see… Show more
