The relationship of light and plant geometry to self-thinning of an aquatic annual herb, Murdannia keisak (Commelinaceae)

Self-thinning was examined in shaded and unshaded populations of Murdannia keisak (Hask.) Hand.-Mazz. (Commelinaceae). Four mathematical descriptions of self-thinning were compared: (1) the traditional - 3/2 thinning rule in which mean plant biomass is regressed on density; (2) principal components...
