The role of hydrochory in structuring riparian and wetland vegetation

C Nilsson, RL Brown, R Jansson… - Biological Reviews, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Hydrochory, or the passive dispersal of organisms by water, is an important means of
propagule transport, especially for plants. During recent years, knowledge about hydrochory …

Why are most aquatic plants widely distributed? Dispersal, clonal growth and small-scale heterogeneity in a stressful environment

L Santamaría - Acta oecologica, 2002 - Elsevier
Non-marine aquatic vascular plants generally show broad distributional ranges. Climatic
factors seem to have limited effects on their distributions, besides the determination of major …

Severely reduced sexual reproduction in northern populations of a clonal plant, Decodon verticillatus (Lythraceae)

ME Dorken, CG Eckert - Journal of Ecology, 2001 - JSTOR
1 In flowering plants the balance between sexual and clonal, asexual reproduction can vary
widely. We quantified variation in sexual reproduction in a tristylous, clonal, aquatic plant …

Phylogenetic studies in Alismatidae, II: evolution of marine angiosperms (seagrasses) and hydrophily

DH Les, MA Cleland, M Waycott - Systematic Botany, 1997 - JSTOR
Aquatic species represent fewer than two percent of all flowering plants, and only 18 aquatic
genera have acquired true hydrophily (water-pollination) which is associated with an …

The loss of sex in clonal plants

CG Eckert - Ecology and evolutionary biology of clonal plants …, 2002 - Springer
Most plants combine sexual and clonal reproduction, and the balance between the two may
vary widely between and within species. There are many anecdotal reports of plants that …

The ecological and evolutionary consequences of clonality for plant mating

M Vallejo-Marín, ME Dorken… - Annual Review of …, 2010 - annualreviews.org
Many flowering plants exhibit dual reproductive modes, producing both sexual and asexual
offspring. The commonest form of asexual reproduction is clonal growth, in which vegetative …

The evolutionary maintenance of sexual reproduction: evidence from the ecological distribution of asexual reproduction in clonal plants

J Silvertown - International journal of plant sciences, 2008 - journals.uchicago.edu
In theory, females that reproduce asexually should enjoy a twofold advantage in fitness over
sexual females, yet sex remains the predominant mode of reproduction in virtually all …
