Abstract
A method employing samples of variable size is assumed and shown to be useful in the detection of unidirectional associations of one species with another, whether caused by direct influence or by coincidence of ecological requirements. The pattern of these associations from a signed digraph (directed graph), the graph theoretical properties of which give insight into the phytosociological structure of the plant community. The properties of transitivity, balance, homogeneity, reachable sets and types of subgraphs are examined.
