The role of leaf height in plant competition for sunlight: analysis of a canopy partitioning model

A global method of nullcline endpoint analysis is employed to de-termine the outcome of competition for sunlight between two hypotheticalplant species with clonal growth form that differ solely in the height at whichthey place their leaves above the ground. This difference in vertical leaf placement...
