Abstract
Evaluates the competitive effects of native understory shrubs, including Callicarpa americana, when intercropped in a longleaf pine plantation. Shrubs in the intercropped area performed worse than when grown in monocultures. Belowground resources, rather than light, were like limiting growth.Suggested Citation
