The interspecific competition intensity in different mixed stands was determined by using the competition indexes constructed with diameter of breast height, the volume of tree crown and distance between trees, through Hegyi’s Competition Index Model.

The competition index of M. yuyuanensis was 1.67 times lower than that in pure stand, especially the competition index constructed by the tree-crown volume was 21 times lower. however, when the ratios were in the scope of 6-4 to 5-5, M. yuyuanensis obviouly decreased production compared with pure stand, the intraspecific competition of M. yuyuanensis becomes stronger when its number increased.
