ABSTRACT
In this study, the response of ramet 4 (a young, newly rooted ramet) to rooting in media of different nutrient levels, and the effect of such local treatment on the growth of older and younger parts of the clone was investigated under green-house conditions. The response was also compared to clones where R4 remained unrooted. The results clearly indicated that there was a very localized response to nutrient supply, where the growth response was largely restricted to the ramet supplied with nutrients.
