The Enigmatic LEA Proteins and Other Hydrophilins1[W] (2008, background): “…2000; Alpert, 2005; Iturriaga et al., 2006) and even in bryophytes (e.g. Tortula, Physcomitrella; Alpert and Oliver, 2002; Oliver et al., 2004; Saavedra et al., 2006; Proctor et al., 2007), pteridophytes (e.g. ferns; Reynolds and Bewley, 1993), and algae (Honjoh et al., 1995; Tanaka et al., 2004).”
Production of greenhouse‐grown biocrust mosses and associated cyanobacteria to rehabilitate dryland soil function (2016, unknown): “However, mosses only begin to fix carbon after 10–30 minutes of hydration (Proctor & Smirnoff 2000), taking 4+ hours to begin cell synthesis (Proctor et al. 2007).”
Desiccation tolerant plants as model systems to study redox regulation of protein thiols (2010, background): “Therefore, most bryophyte cells exist either in a fully turgid or a desiccated state for most of the time, with transition between the two occurring relatively fast, which means that metabolism under reduced water potential occurs only transiently (Proctor et al. 2007).”
