Experimental life-history evolution: selection on growth form and its plasticity in a clonal plant.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Mar 2004

Fischer M, van Kleunen M, Schmid B

Abstract excerpt

The growth form along the continuum from compact phalanx plants to more loosely packed guerilla plants is an important life-history trait in clonal plants. Prerequisite for its evolution is heritable genetic variation. Starting with 102 genotypes of the stoloniferous herb Ranunculus reptans, we performed one selection experiment on spatial spread per rosette as measure of guerillaness (broad-sense heritability...
