title: [Individual tree growth-competition model in mixed plantation of manchurian ash and dahurian larch].
abstract: Based on distance-dependent competition models and neighborhood interference models, the competition index components and competition effect coefficients were used to quantify the spatial competition among trees in the mixed plantation of ash(Fraxinus mandshurica) and larch(Larix gmelini). Taking each component of competition index as independent variables and the yearly volume growth as dependent variable, the competition-growth model was established with good regression result. The study provided a new approach to deal with the further improvement of spatial competition models and the plant competition-growth relationship ecological study.
