To assess the competitive ability between two biotypes of Lolium rigidum, one resistant to glyphosate and the other a sensitive wild type, the density of resistant and sensitive biotypes was counted after germination.
1 |
A data frame with 49 observations on the following 3 variables.
z
a numeric vector with densities of the resistant biotype (plants/m2)
x
a numeric vector with densities of the sensitive biotype (plants/m2)
biomass
a numeric vector of biomass weight (g/plant)
A hyperbolic model (Jensen, 1993) is describing the data reasonably well.
The dataset is from Pedersen et al (2007).
