#ClonalIntegration

Does clonal integration benefit clonal plants against local allelopathic stress? Evidence from experiment of two congeneric plant pairs This study reveals that clonal integration can assist clonal plants in coping with allelopathic stress from neighbour plants; however, the competitive adva

Interspecific competition promotes root foraging of a clonal plant via physiological integration Root foraging is a common response of plants to heterogeneous soils. We found at the first time that interspecific competition on a ramet of clonal plants

Schematic representation of the experimental design.

Bo Guan et al. conducted a pot control experiment using #PhragmitesAustralis and #SuaedaSalsa from the #YellowRiverDelta, assessed the effects of #SaltHeterogeneity, #ClonalIntegration and #InterspecificCompetition on the morphological & physiological traits of P. australis.
