The Influence of Competition on Plant Responses to Seasonal Cues
... Plants can respond to environmental change by changing their “appearance” or phenotype (phenotypic plasticity). For example, plants in high-density environments (competition) flower earlier than in low-density environments (no competition), i.e. reproducing before all of the resources needed are exh ...
