The different lowercase letters indicate significant differences between intercropping treatments at P < 0.05. MC, 4:4CM, 4:4CG, 8:4CM, and 8:4CG represent monocropping C. esculentus, 4:4 C. esculentus/Medicago sativa L. intercropping, 4:4 C. esculentus/Glycine max (L.) Merr., 8:4 C. esculentus/Medicago sativa L., and 8:4 C. esculentus/Glycine max (L.) Merr. intercropping, respectively.
