Abstract
Investigates the effects of conspecific density on the survival, fecundity, and growth of established individuals of Saliva lyrata in a natural population. Density manipulations resulted in small responses in Salvia lyrata. The population of mature S. lyrata does not exhibit strong density-dependent effects at typical natural densities.Suggested Citation
