Study shows how clonal and bud bank traits are distributed across plant communities in Czech Republic. The key factors driving distribution of clonal growth traits in habitats of Central Europe seem to be differences in productivity and in wetness. These gradients underlie the major shift in clonal growth parameters, from clonal plants with short and persistent connections among ramets, to plants with long- and short-lived connections. On the other hand, the proportion of plants having the capacity for clonal growth and size of their below-ground bud bank do not change strongly along these gradients and depends probably on disturbance regime.
