• Wood anatomy and hydraulic architecture of stems and twigs of some Mediterranean trees and shrubs along a mesic-xeric gradient (2008, background): “P. lentiscus and M. communis have helical vessel wall sculpturing, but it is hard to envisage that these fine thickenings would considerably contribute to the mechanical strength of the vessels (cf. Carlquist 1975; Baas 1976; Baas and Carlquist 1985; Baas and Schweingruber 1987; Carlquist 1988).”
• Variation of xylem vessel diameters across a climate gradient: insight from a reciprocal transplant experiment with a widespread boreal tree (2015, background): “Bimodal distribu- tions are known for ring-porous trees, whereas semi-ring- porous and diffuse-porous trees tend to approach normal distributions (Woodcock 1989a,b; Carlquist 2001).”
• Evolution of Water Transport and Xylem Structure (2003, background): “Similarly, although max­ imum vessel lengths and diameters are much greater than tra­ cheids, vessels with lengths and especially diameters within the tracheid range are common, and tracheids operate side by side with vessels in some woods (Carlquist 1988).”
• Morpho-Anatomical Traits for Plant Adaptation to Drought (2012, background): “…from Mediterranean semiarid ecosystems which have wood specialised for high conductivity when water is available (simple perforation plates, wide earlywood vessels, etc.), but also for safety during drought periods (narrow latewood vessels, vasicentric tracheids, etc.) (Carlquist 1988, 1989).”
• Morphological diversity of Pistacia species in Iran (2009, methodology): “Wood anatomy has also been used as a tool in identification (Grundwag and Werker 1976).”
• Xylem heterochrony: an unappreciated key to angiosperm origin and diversifications. (2009, background): “As noted above, this configuration may be associated with controlling conduction in vessels and refilling them after air bubble or embolism formation, but, in addition, statistically it is associated with wider ray size (Carlquist, 1988a).”
• Functional and Ecological Xylem Anatomy (2015, background): “The speculations of Carlquist and others along these lines (e.g., Carlquist 1988) that were dismissed by Zimmermann (1983) deserve a closer look using the appropriate biomechanical tests.”
• Variations In Dieot Wood Anatomy: A Global Analysis Based on the Insidewood Database (2007, background): “Seasonality in cambial activity is not uncommon in the tropics, but the variations in wood anatomy associated with that seasonality are often different from those of temperate Northern Hemisphere woods (Worbes 1989, 1999; Carlquist 2001).”
• Diversity of Mechanical Architectures in Climbing Plants: An Evolutionary Perspective (2004, neutral): “Further changes and compliance are brought about by geometric dissection or lobing of the already compliant wood cylinder, a feature well known among woody lianas as a type of cambial variant (Carlquist 1988, 1991).”
• Phylogenetics and Classification of Cunoniaceae (Oxalidales) Using Chloroplast DNA Sequences and Morphology (2009, background): “The ancestral state reconstruction of one wood character stood out as potentially controversial because the direction of change inferred goes against widely held views on wood evolution (e.g., Carlquist 1988, see especially Chapter 11).”
