Abstract

where Y,J is the shoot dry weight yield of a monoculture of species i at a factor level J and YmJ is the yield for a monoculture of the most productive species, m, at that factor level. (2) The R13 values are used to determine relative physiological performance curves for species in relation to a nutrient gradient, using data from a published experiment where performance in monoculture and in fiveand ten-species mixtures was recorded. (3) A normalized ecological performance value (E1J) was defined for multispecies mixtures:
