Abstract
Background: The ability of small clonal fragments to establish and grow after disturbance is an important ecological
advantage of clonal growth in plants and a major factor in the invasiveness of some introduced, clonal species. We
hypothesized that orientation in the horizontal position (typical for stoloniferous plants) can increase the survival and
growthofdispersedclonalfragments,andthatthiseffectoforientationcanbestrongerwhenfragmentsaresmallerand
thushavefewerreservestosupportinitialgrowth.
Methodology/Principal Findings: To test these hypotheses, we compared performance of single-node pieces of stolon

the ramet. As expected, survival and growth were greatest when fragments were positioned horizontally. Contrary to
expectations, some of these effects of orientation were stronger when attached stolons were longer. Orientation had
smaller effects than stolon length on the performance of fragments; survival of fragments was about 60% with shorter
stolonsand90%withlongerstolons.
Conclusions/Significance: Results supported the hypothesis that orientation can affect establishment of small clonal
fragments,suggestedthateffectsoforientationcanbestrongerinlargerratherthansmallerfragments,andindicatedthat
