Journal ArticleDOI
Physiologically mediated self/non-self discrimination in roots
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that B. dactyloides plants are able to differentiate between self and non-self neighbors and develop fewer and shorter roots in the presence of other roots of the same individual.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decision-making in plants under competition
TL;DR: It is shown that the light-competition scenario determines the strategy employed by the clonal plant Potentilla reptans, and this response suggests shifts between ‘confrontational’ vertical growth, shade tolerance and lateral-avoidance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of plant defences along an invasion chronosequence: defence is lost due to enemy release – but not forever
TL;DR: The findings support the idea that the selection pressure of enemy release at the introduced range might attenuate over time, leading to the evolutionary recovery of enemy resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Competitive dominance of the invasive plant Impatiens glandulifera: using competitive effect and response with a vigorous neighbour
TL;DR: It is shown that although invasive genotypes exert a weaker competitive pressure compared to their native conspecifics, they are still competitively superior to U. dioica, suggesting that the high competitive ability of I. glandulifera could be attributed it to allelopathic effects on co-occurring native species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ontogenetic contingency of tolerance mechanisms in response to apical damage
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that damage-induced meristem activation is an adaptive response that could be modified according to the plant's developmental stage, severity of tissue loss and their interaction, stressing the importance of considering these effects when studying plastic responses to apical damage.
