Fig. 2. Temporal pattern in stem number of sterile oat grown with barley during the 20032004 and 20042005 growing seasons. Lines describe linear regression equations (data before the multivariate analysis of variance [MANOVA] were (x + 1)-transformed, but the mean values used were back-transformed). MT, minimum tillage; RT, reduced tillage; CT, conventional tillage.

Fig. 3. Temporal pattern in fresh weight of sterile oat grown with barley during the 20032004 and 20042005 growing seasons. Lines describe quadratic regression equations (data before the multivariate analysis of variance [MANOVA] were log(x + 1)-transformed, but the mean values used were back-transformed). MT, minimum tillage; RT, reduced tillage; CT, conventional tillage.
