Determine the population growth curve for the annual plant in question 9.2 if reproductive rate is a linear function of density of the form R 0 = 1.0 ? 0.01 z (where z = deviation from equilibrium density), equilibrium density is 3000, and starting density is 35 [Equation (9.4)]. Repeat under the assumption that there is a one-generation lime lag in changing reproductive rate [Equation (9.14)].
