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 ...

Clonal integration enhances the performance of a clonal plant species under soil alkalinity stress.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Clonal plants have been shown to successfully survive in stressful environments, including salinity stress, drought and depleted nutrients through clonal integration between original and subsequent ramets.

Effects of highland environments on clonal diversity in aquatic plants: An interspecific comparison study on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Clonal reproduction is one of the most distinctive characteristics of plants and is common and diverse in aquatic macrophytes. The balance between sexual and asexual reproduction is affected by various conditions, especially adverse environments. However,

Two distinct AFLP types in three populations of marram grass (Ammophila arenaria in Wales) [PDF]

, 2008
The genetic structure of marram grass populations at coastal and inland locations, 200 m apart, was investigated at three sites by means of amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) DNA markers.

Patterns and drivers of the belowground bud bank in alpine grasslands on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionIn grassland ecosystems dominated by asexual plants, the maintenance, renewal, and resistance of plant populations to disturbance are more dependent on the belowground bud bank (BBB).

Reconstruction of pedigrees in clonal plant populations [PDF]

Theoretical Population Biology, 2010
We present a Bayesian method for the reconstruction of pedigrees in clonal populations using co-dominant genomic markers such as microsatellites and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The accuracy of the algorithm is demonstrated for simulated data.

The role of active movement in fungal ecology and community assembly [PDF]

, 2019
Movement ecology aims to provide common terminology and an integrative framework of movement research across all groups of organisms. Yet such work has focused on unitary organisms so far, and thus the important group of filamentous fungi has not been ...

Effect of Rhizome Severing on Survival and Growth of Rhizomatous Herb Phragmites communis Is Regulated by Sand Burial Depth

Plants, 2022
Rhizome fragmentation and sand burial are common phenomena in rhizomatous clonal plants. These traits serve as an adaptive strategy for survival in stressful environments.

Occurrence of LINE, gypsy-like, and copia-like retrotransposons in the clonally propagated sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) [PDF]

, 2011
Retrotransposons are a class of transposable elements that represent a major fraction of the repetitive DNA of most eukaryotes. Their abundance stems from their expansive replication strategies.

A public mid-density genotyping platform for cultivated blueberry (Vaccinium spp.)

Genetic Resources
Small public breeding programmes have many barriers to adopting technology, particularly creating and using genetic marker panels for genomic-based decisions in selection.
