Plant ecology

proposal that plants allocate biomass to the organ that acquires the most limiting resource, so that all resources limit growth about equally.

In plant ecology, optimal partitioning theory refers to proposal that plants allocate biomass to the organ that acquires the most limiting resource, so that all resources limit growth about equally. This meaning comes from Bloom (1985) in Annual Review of Ecology and Systematics.[1]
