Table 1.
Species | α | β | n | R2 |
---|---|---|---|---|
Dactylis glomerata | 0·989 (0·948–1·10) | 0·544 (0·423–0·698) | 60 | 0·974 |
Plantago lanceolata | 1·05 (1·01–1·09) | 0·349 (0·272–0·448) | 60 | 0·978 |
α and β are the scaling exponent and allometric coefficient, respectively (eqn 1) estimated from RMA regressions of ln root dry weight (mg) on ln shoot dry weight (mg).
Numbers in parenthesis are 95 % confidence limits on the estimates of α and β.
