Invasive alien plants in China: role of clonality and geographical origin
TL;DR: America is the primary geographical origin of invasive alien plant species in China and that clonality of the invasive plant species contributed significantly to the their invasiveness, suggesting an urgent need at the global scale to investigate the mechanisms whereby plant clonal growth influences plant invasions.
Journal ArticleDOI
United we stand, divided we fall: a meta-analysis of experiments on clonal integration and its relationship to invasiveness.
Yao-Bin Song,Yao-Bin Song,Fei-Hai Yu,Fei-Hai Yu,Lidewij H. Keser,Lidewij H. Keser,Wayne Dawson,Markus Fischer,Ming Dong,Ming Dong,Mark van Kleunen +10 more
TL;DR: General performance benefits of clonal integration are demonstrated, at least in the short term, and it is suggested thatClonal integration contributes to the success ofClonal plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantification of the Impact of Land-Use Changes on Ecosystem Services: A Case Study in Pingbian County, China
TL;DR: It is proposed that future land-use policy should pay more attention to the crucial ecosystem functions of these forests (including tropical forest), and that it is necessary to balance the relationship between the livelihood of local farmers and environmental protection in order to maintain a healthy and stable ecosystem.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasticity in morphology and biomass allocation in Cynodon dactylon, a grass species forming stolons and rhizomes.
Ming Dong,H. de Kroon +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that plasticity in morphology and biomass allocation in response to variation in light and nutrient availability in Cynodon dactylon is reduced, and both stolon and rhizome branching intensities were reduced in Response to lower light and lower nutrient levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clonal integration helps Psammochloa villosa survive sand burial in an inland dune
TL;DR: It is concluded that clonal integration increased the ability of P.villosa to withstand sand burial, and that P. villosa could emerge from deep burial probably by elongating vertical structures with the help of the energy imported from the connected, unburied ramets.
