Many ecosystems are dominated by clonal plants. Among the most distinctive characteristics
of clonal plants is their potential for clonal integration (ie the translocation of resources …

竹类植物是一类以木本为主的克隆植物, 凭借表型可塑性的优势, 对异质生境具有很强适应能力.
然而, 目前对竹类植物表型可塑性的实现方式及其异质生境适应对策未见系统总结 …

Plants can solve amazingly difficult tasks while adjusting their growth and development to
the environment. They can explore and exploit several resources simultaneously, even …

Clonality in plants is widespread and includes species that span temporally and spatially
heterogeneous environments. Yet, theory predicts that clonally reproducing plants evolve at …

Abstract Background and Aims Many notorious alien invasive plants are clonal, but little is
known about some roles and aspects of clonal integration. Here, the hypothesis is tested …

Microplastics are heterogeneously distributed in soils. However, it is unknown whether soil
microplastic heterogeneity affects plant growth and root foraging responses and whether …

Clonal plants benefit from the ability to translocate resources among interconnected ramets
to colonize heterogeneous habitats. Clonal integration affects the resource level and …

Transgenerational plasticity has recently been recognized as a mechanism allowing
phenotypic adjustments to local conditions to be passed onto sexually produced offspring …

What determines the invasiveness of introduced plants is still poorly known. Many of the
most invasive plant species are clonal, and physiological integration between connected …

Disturbance is common in nature and disturbance-caused fragmentation of clones happens
frequently in stoloniferous plants. After fragmentation storage in stolon internodes and …
