- Cultivar × Environment Interactions in Switchgrass (2003, unknown): “Switchgrass suffers from winter mortality at northern latitudes (Casler et al., 2002), an effect that sufficiently large tillers to compensate for the stand losses imposed by this relatively early harvest date. Vo- may be enhanced by depletion of carbohydrate reserves following a mid-August harvest ”
- Theoretical Expected Genetic Gains for Among‐and‐Within‐Family Selection Methods in Perennial Forage Crops (2008, background): “This could be the case if X is a forage-quality trait and Y is forage yield ( Casler, 2001 ).”
- Interrelationships among Forage Nutritive Value and Quantity and Individual Animal Performance (2011, background): “Among the many factors that aff ect forage quantity and NVAL on pasture are species and cultivar selection (Casler, 2000; Wilkins and Humphreys, 2003), defoliation frequency (Vendramini et al.”

- Progress in breeding perennial clovers for temperate agriculture (2005, background): “The factors important for the utilization of forage legumes by the ruminant animal were discussed by Beever & Thorp (1996) and the breeding of forages for increased nutritional value was reviewed by Casler & Vogel (1999) and Casler (2000).”
- Progress in breeding perennial forage grasses for temperate agriculture (2003, background): “In vitro dry matter digestibility (DMD) provides the best single criterion of the nutritional value of a wide range of forage species and varieties for ruminants (Casler 2000).”
