A very interesting #study on #mechanisms that can prevent #selfinhibition in #clonal #plantgrowth via interconnected modules (#ramets). To circumvent competition between neighboring branches for limited space, plants can utilize #minorobstacles such as stones or debris leading to the necessary spatial #separation. The authors compare this mechanism with obstacles used by humans to enhance #pedestrianflow.

Clonal fish: Same genes, same environment, different fitness levels

According to current knowledge, individuality is determined by either differences in genome or in the apparent environmental conditions. However, studies show, the paradigm of twin research is currently crumbling.
