Plant clonal integration mediates the horizontal redistribution of soil resources, benefiting neighbouring plants
Resources such as water taken up by plants can be released into soils through hydraulic redistribution and can also be translocated by clonal integration within a plant clonal network. We hypothesized that the resources from one (donor) microsite could be translocated within a clonal network, releas...
