Abstract

We present a spatial competition model for clonal plant growth that combines two different mechanisms of competition. The first one is described by the standard underlying Kolmogorov Model for two interacting populations. A second competition mechanism, more specific to clonal plant growth, expresses the motility of each species and their capacity to resist to competitor's space intrusion. This model leads to a degenerated nonlinear reaction–diffusion system in which the diffusion coefficient of each species vanishes wherever the other species is beyond a certain biomass value.
