In plants, "self-thinning" refers to population density in response to competition, as
reduction in: population biomass increases.
Gause's "competitive exclusion no two species with identical niches can coexist
principle" states that: indefinitely.
In the Lotka-Volterra competition effect of one individual of species 2 on population
equations, the parameter 12 relates to growth rate of one individual of species

competition is:
Competition between members of interspecific competition
different species is called:
. Controlled field experiments showed competitively suppress
that kangaroo rats ____________
populations of small granivores
Self-thinning results from: intraspecific competition for limited resources
