Abstract

As an important concept in modern ecology, allometry is the differential growth of parts or metrics of an organism and refers to the numerical relationship between growth and allocation. Plant allometry has a close relationship with phenotypic plasticity. The application of allometric relation in plant research includes response to different habitats, reproductive strategy, intraspecific and interspecific competition, and so on. It could be useful to introduce the allometry into the practice of choosing suitable habitat, accumulation of medicinal parts biomass and chemical constituents, as well as scientific cultivation and management on Dao-di herbs.
