Ecological Consequences of Clonal Integration in Plants [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Clonal plants are widespread throughout the plant kingdom and dominate in diverse habitats. Spatiotemporal heterogeneity of environment is pervasive at multiple scales, even at scales relevant to individual plants. Clonal integration refers to resource translocation and information communication among the ramets of clonal plants.

Facilitation by a Spiny Shrub on a Rhizomatous Clonal Herbaceous in Thicketization-Grassland in Northern China: Increased Soil Resources or Shelter from Herbivores

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
The formation of fertility islands by shrubs increases soil resources heterogeneity in thicketization-grasslands. Clonal plants, especially rhizomatous or stoloniferous clonal plants, can form large clonal networks and use heterogeneously distributed ...

Effects of Descendent Phenotypic Diversity Mediated by Ancestor Environmental Variation on Population Productivity of a Clonal Plant

Diversity, 2022
Phenotypic variation of individuals within populations can be influenced by not only genetic diversity and environmental variation experienced by these individuals but also environmental variation experienced by their parents.

Next Generation Sequencing, and Development of a Pipeline as a Tool for the Detection and Discovery of Citrus Pathogens to Facilitate Safer Germplasm Exchange

Plants
Citrus is affected by many diseases, and hence, the movement of citrus propagative materials is highly regulated in the USA. Currently used regulatory pathogen detection methods include biological and laboratory-based technologies, which are time ...

Genetic diversity analysis of cultivated and wild grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) accessions around the Mediterranean basin and Central Asia

BMC Plant Biology, 2018
Background The mountainous region between the Caucasus and China is considered to be the center of domestication for grapevine. Despite the importance of Central Asia in the history of grape growing, information about the extent and distribution of grape

Clonal versus non-clonal milkweeds (Asclepias spp.) respond differently to stem damage, affecting oviposition by monarch butterflies [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
Background Oviposition decisions are critical to the fitness of herbivorous insects and are often impacted by the availability and condition of host plants.

Populations in clonal plants

Agricultural and Food Science, 1986
Population phenomena in higher plants are reviewed critically, particularly in relation to clonality. An array of concepts used in the field are discussed. In contrast to animals, higher plants are modular in structure. Plant populations show hierarchy at two levels: ramets and genets.
