Effect of sowing proportion on above- and below-ground competition in maize–soybean intercrops
Abstract The relative contribution of above- and below-ground competition to crop yield under intercropping systems is critical to understanding the mechanisms of improved yield. Changes in the content of above- and below-ground biomass, leaf photosynthetic rate (Pn), leaf area index (LAI), chloroph...
