The relative growth rate per day (RGR) and the number of newly produced tillers per day (TNT) responses of S. alterniflora and P. australis to neighbor removal in different tidal zones (mean±SE).

RGRN+ represents the relative growth rate per day (RGR) when neighbors present. RGRN- represents the relative growth rate per day (RGR) when neighbors absent. TNTN+ represents the number of the newly produced tillers per day (TNT) when neighbors are present. TNTN- represents the number of the newly produced tillers per day (TNT) when neighbors are absent.RGRN+ 指代邻株存在条件下的日相对生长率（RGRN+, Relative Growth Rate per day when Neighbors present），其中RGR为相对生长率（relative growth rate）的缩写；RGRN- 指代邻株缺失条件下的日相对生长率。TNTN+ 指代邻株存在条件下的日新生分蘖数（TNTN+, Number of Newly Produced Tillers per day when Neighbors present），其中TNT为日新生分蘖数（Number of Newly Produced Tillers per day）的缩写；TNTN- 指代邻株缺失条件下的日新生分蘖数。
