The importance of population origin and reciprocal heterogeneous microhabitat on clonal propagation of Iris japonica Thunb.

A reciprocal transplant-replant experiment was carried out to investigate the clonal plasticity and local specialization of OAFE population (O type) and BF population (U type) of a clonal rhizome herb Iris japonica in contrasting reciprocal heterogeneous habitats on Jinyun Mountain. U Population had...
