| Abstract | The relationship between competition and tree growth was studied in four stands of Pinus sylvestris L. occurring in a continental Mediterranean mountain area (in the Guadarrama range, Spain), i.e., an uneven-aged stand, a stand with oak (Quercus pyrenaica Willd.) understorey, a plantation, and a mature even-aged stand. Competition was measured by a simple size-ratio distance-independent index and was negatively associated with tree diameter. This negative association was stronger in the uneven-aged, plantation and mature even-aged stands than in the stand with oak understorey. Competition was also negatively associated with current diameter increment. This relationship was moderately strong in the mature even-aged stand and weak in the uneven-aged stand and the plantation. In the uneven-aged and the mature even-aged stands, a weakly significant relationship was found between diameter growth and tree size, whereas these parameters were not associated in the stand with oak understorey. The competition index provided a better prediction of growth rate than the alternative use of diameter. Both diameter and basal area growth were greater in the uneven-aged than in the even-aged stands.La relation entre compétition et croissance a été étudiée dans quatre peuplements de Pinus sylvestris L. que l’on rencontre dans la zone continentale des montagnes méditerranéennes (dans la région de Guadarrama en Espagne). Ont été pris en compte un peuplement inéquienne, un peuplement avec du chêne (Quercus pyrenaica Willd.) en sous—étage, une plantation, et un peuplement équienne âgé. La compétition a été mesurée par un index indépendant, simple rapport taille/distance, et était corrélée négativement avec le diamètre des arbres. Cette corrélation négative était plus forte dans le peuplement inéquienne, la plantation et le peuplement équienne âgé que dans le peuplement avec sous-étage de chêne. L’index de compétition était aussi corrélé négativement avec l’accroissement courant en diamètre. La relation était modérément forte dans le peuplement équienne âgé et faible dans le peuplement inéquienne et la plantation. Dans le peuplement inéquienne et le peuplement équienne âgé une relation faiblement significative a été trouvée entre croissance en diamètre et taille de l’arbre, alors que ces paramètres n’étaient pas corrélés dans le peuplement avec sous-étage de chêne. L’index de compétition fournit une meilleure prédiction du taux de croissance que le simple diamètre. La croissance en diamètre et en surface terrière était plus importante dans le peuplement inéquienne que dans le peuplement équienne âgé. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
