Abstract
3. Competitive interactions among genotypes often changed from early in the season (as measured by the number of tillers) to late in the season (as measured by yield per tiller). In a few mixtures negative correlations between early competitive ability (relative number of tillers) and components of late competition suggested that intra-genotypic competition might have been stronger than inter-genotypic competition.
