Abstract

It is common knowledge that plants compete for the basic resources required for plant growth and development, namely nutrient elements, water and sunlight. A far lesser known fact is that long after plant-plant competition was accepted by ecologists to be the sole determinant of plant-plant interactions, a new phenomenon in plant ecology was discovered.
