Growth and physiological responses of Eichhornia crassipes to clonal integration under experimental defoliation
X Lyu, Y Zhang, W You - Aquatic Ecology, 2016 - Springer
Many notorious invasive plants are clonal, and clonal integration may improve their ability to
cope with disturbances such as herbivory. We hypothesize that clonal integration positively
affects the growth, physiology and biomass allocation of the invasive aquatic plant
Eichhornia crassipes and thus improves its performance in response to defoliation. In a 7-
week greenhouse experiment, we subjected E. crassipes ramets to three levels of
experimental defoliation, ie, 20%(mild), 50%(moderate) and 80%(heavy) leaf clipping and …
