Problem: The data collected in the UTA ground is presented below: Plant Species Variance/mean ratio (s2/xx) Straggler Daisy, Calyptocarpus vialis 1.51 Dandelion, Taraxacum sp. 1.09 Henbit, Lamium sp. 0.97 Wood-sorrel, Oxalis sp. 3.45 Pony's foot, Dichondra sp. 0.42 Clover, Trifolium sp. 2.77
Based on the variance/mean ratio, what can you conclude about the spatial pattern of these species?
Explain your findings given observations you made as you were sampling and what you learned from your research about the biology/ecology of the species.
