生理整合作用是克隆植物的一个重要特征,克隆植物所表现出的许多独特的生态学行为,均与其所具有的生理整合效应密切相关.本文总结并分析了迄今为止在研究克隆植物生理整合作用方面所采用的各种方法,并将其归纳为直接和间接方法两个大类.通过这些研究方法的综合运用,克隆植物生理整合效应的机制、格局及其影响因素可以得到更加深入的揭示.在不断深化和拓展现有研究方法的基础上,今后在克隆植物生理整合效应的研究方面,还应较多地关注更为精确的研究方法,以及野外或自然条件下的实地研究.
Physiological integration is one of the most important characteristics of clonal plants. Many unique behaviors of clonal plants are closely related to the effects of physiological integration. The research methods for the effects of physiological integration of clonal plants, which have hitherto been used, were summarized and analyzed. These methods were classified into two basic categories, i, e, , the direct and indirect methods, Comprehensively applying these methods may further reveal the mechanism, pattern and influential factors of the effects of physiological integration of clonal plants, On the basis of continuously developing and expanding the present research methods, more attentions will be paid to the more precise methods and the research in the field or under natural conditions.
