摘要: Within most plant populations, individuals span a wide range of sizes. Factors which may determine size differences within populations include (1) maternal effects, (2) age differences, (3) genetic variation, (4) heterogeneity resources, (5) differential effects herbivores, parasites or pathogens, and (6) competition (Weiner & Thomas, 1986).
