显然，通过与酶动力学的类比，在[藻类]竞争的讨论中，养分吸收或生长的半饱和值(K)经常被过分强调，而最大速率(Rm)的作用没有得到足够的重视。比值Rm/K是Monod方程在最低底物浓度时的斜率，它提供了一种简单的方法来强调这两个因素。引用了文献中的几个例子，表明这个比率比单独的K值更能反映最低浓度的比率，以及在所考虑的过程中的竞争地位。
Apparently by analogy with enzyme kinetics, the half-saturation value (K) for nutrient uptake or growth has frequently been overemphasized in discussions of competition [in algae], and the role of maximum rates (Rm) has not been given sufficient emphasis. The ratio Rm/K, which is the slope of the Monod equation at lowest substrate concentration, offers a simple way of emphasizing both factors. Several examples from the literature are cited to show that this ratio better reflects rates at lowest concentrations, and competitive position in the process being considered, than do K values alone.
