Fig. 2. Fraction of light intercepted at 11, 22, and 46 d after emergence (DAE) was regressed against population density for ‘Manokin’ soybean at Fayetteville, AR, in 1999, using a monomolecular model . The a coefficient was 0.42, 0.88, and 0.99, and the b coefficent was 0.015, 0.062, and 0.90 for 11, 22, and 46 DAE, respectively.
