• Root Water Uptake: From Three‐Dimensional Biophysical Processes to Macroscopic Modeling Approaches (2013, unknown): “Furthermore, xylem conductivity may decrease considerably due to cavitation (Sperry et al., 2002, 2005).”
• Land-plant ecology on the basis of functional traits. (2006, background): “Recently, Sperry et al. [34] showed by direct measurement that end walls and lumens contributed in roughly equal shares to the overall resistivity (inverse of conductivity); end walls contributed 54 G 7% of resistivity across seven species with widely varying anatomies.”
• Leaf hydraulics. (2006, background): “Thus, anatomical features not included in the model, for example, the resistance to water movement between xylem conduits, must play an important role (34, 121).”
• Hydraulic Consequences of Vessel Evolution in Angiosperms (2007, background): “A large number of open vessels results in an underestimation of the flow resistance because endwalls are excluded (Sperry et al. 2005).”
• Size and function in conifer tracheids and angiosperm vessels. (2006, methodology): “Measurements of lumen conductivity agree with Hagen–Poiseuille calculations, at least for vessels with simple perforation plates (Zwieniecki et al., 2001; Sperry et al., 2005).”
• An overview of the anatomy, development and evolution of the vascular system of lianas (2012, background): “The relative advantages of each vessel type might explain the existing skewed distribution of vessel types, with short vessels being less common in liana stems than longer ones (Zimmermann and Jeje 1981; Sperry et al. 2005).”
• Scaling of angiosperm xylem structure with safety and efficiency. (2006, methodology): “Instead, we used the shortening technique to determine RXa (Sperry et al. 2005).”
• Hydraulic and environmental limitations to leaf water relations in trees with respect to canopy position (2006, background): “Thus, water transfer through the sapwood is a function of the anatomy of conduits, depending on both lumen diameter and conduit length, and the length is particularly important in coniferous wood, which contains only tracheids (Sperry et al., 2005).”
