To study the interspecific competition between wheat and gram, a pot experiment was conducted. The experiment comprised nine treatments varying in the density of wheat (with or without bio-power inoculation) and gram plants. The interspecific petition significantly influenced the plant height, 1000-grain weight, grain yield per plant and grain nitrogen content in at plants. For gram plants as well, plant height, 1000-seed weight, seed yield per plant and seed nitrogen content significantly improved as a result of interspecific competition. Nevertheless, intraspecific competition drastically reduced these parameters for both wheat and gram plants grown in monoculture. Yield components of wheat plants raised from seeds inoculated with bio-power and the gram plants competing with them also significantly improved.
