Parental effects of physiological integration on growth of a clonal herb

Frontiers in Plant Science
Although numerous studies have independently tested the roles of physiological integration and parental effects on the performance of clonal plant species, few have assessed them simultaneously.

Transcriptome analysis and physiological indicators reveal the role of physiological integration in heterogeneous cadmium and phenanthrene stress in Zoysia japonica [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionCadmium (Cd) and phenanthrene (Phe) stress inhibit plant growth and physiological metabolism. Zoysia japonica is a perennial clonal turfgrass widely used in lawns, sports fields, and urban landscapes, where it is frequently exposed to ...

Influence of the size of clonal fragment on the nitrogen turnover processes in a bamboo ecosystem

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Different sizes of clonal fragments contain various number of ramets with different spacer lengths, which strongly affects the redistribution of photosynthetic assimilates.

Invasive clonal plants possess greater capacity for division of labor than natives in high patch contrast environments

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Invasion success of clonal plants is closely related to their unique clonal life history, and clonal division of labor is a crucial clonal trait. However, so far, it is unclear whether invasive alien clonal species generally possess a greater capacity ...

The Amelioration of Grazing through Physiological Integration by a Clonal Dune Plant

Plants, 2023
Rhizomatous growth and associated physiological integration can allow a clonal dune species to potentially compensate for the selective removal of leaves associated with herbivory.

Ecological significance of assimilate distribution in Agropyron repens clones under influence of the copper smelter Legnica

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The studies on couch grass (Agropyron repens (L.) P. Beauv.) populations growing in stress conditions in close vicinity of a copper smelter concern the integrity of clonal structure. The connections of tillers within a clone and the interclonal integrity

Effects of clonal integration and light availability on the growth and physiology of two invasive herbs [PDF]

, 2010
1. Clonal plants benefit from the ability to translocate resources among interconnected ramets to colonize heterogeneous habitats. Clonal integration affects the resource level and morphological traits of ramets, and thus may influence their physiology ...

Halophytic Clonal Plant Species: Important Functional Aspects for Existence in Heterogeneous Saline Habitats

Plants, 2023
Plant modularity-related traits are important ecological determinants of vegetation composition, dynamics, and resilience. While simple changes in plant biomass resulting from salt treatments are usually considered a sufficient indicator for resistance ...

Impacts of Sand Burial and Wind Erosion on Regeneration and Growth of a Desert Clonal Shrub

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Sand burial and wind erosion caused by sand movement are common phenomena in desert environments, but the effects on clonal shrub have rarely been investigated.
