Next-gen plant clonal ecology [PDF]
Perspectives in Plant Ecology, Evolution and Systematics, 2021 Abstract Plants with clonal growth can produce multiple potentially independent units, termed ramets. Clonal growth can have important ecological and evolutionary consequences, such as by increasing probability of reproduction, space monopolization, and regeneration after injury; and by permitting physiological integration of connected ramets ...

Halophytic Clonal Plant Species: Important Functional Aspects for Existence in Heterogeneous Saline Habitats [PDF]
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 ...

Both Adaptability and Endophytic Bacteria Are Linked to the Functional Traits in the Invasive Clonal Plant Wedelia trilobata [PDF]
Plants, 2022 The role of the interactions between endophytes and host plants is unclear in invasive plants from different geographical latitudes. In this study, we aimed to explore the relationship between endophytic microbes and the functional traits of the invasive

Changes induced by parental neighboring touch in the clonal plant Glechoma longituba depend on the light environment [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceIntroductionTouch by neighboring plants is a common but overlooked environmental variable for plants, especially in dense vegetation. In addition, shade is inevitable for understory plants.

Responses to Sedimentation in Ramet Populations of the Clonal Plant Carex brevicuspis [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 In aquatic ecosystems, sedimentation is an important factor that affects plant growth, mainly due to sediment depth. Clonal morphological plasticity is an effective strategy in clonal plants for acclimatization to sediment burial.

Anticipatory Behavior of the Clonal Plant Fragaria vesca. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2018 Active foraging for patchy resources is a crucial feature of many clonal plant species. It has been recently shown that plants' foraging for resources can be facilitated by anticipatory behavior via association of resource position with other environmental cues.
