The evolution of phenotypic plasticity of plant traits may be constrained by costs and limits. However, the precise constraints are still unclear for many traits under different ecological contexts. In a glasshouse experiment, we grew ramets of 12 genotypes of a clonal plant Hydrocotyle vulgaris under the control (full light and no flood), shade and flood conditions and tested the potential costs...
Clonal integration and fragmentation are potentially competing advantages of clonal growth. Clonal fragmentation can increase the dispersal of ramets, but it prevents physiological integration, which can increase the growth of clones and may increase their competitive effect on other plant species. We tested whether fragmentation can reduce the competitive effect of invasive clonal plants within mixed...
Previous studies suggest that a disproportionately high number of invasive plant species are clonal, and that an increase in N availability often promotes the spread of introduced plants. We tested the hypothesis that greater ability to increase performance in response to the increase in N availability is associated with greater invasiveness in clonal plant species on a regional basis in China, where...
