• Wood anatomy and hydraulic architecture of stems and twigs of some Mediterranean trees and shrubs along a mesic-xeric gradient (2008, background): “…xylem cell types, recent investigations highlighted the importance of patterns in hydraulic architecture in determining efficiency of water transport and also demonstrated that the applicability of Murray’s law is different in coniferous, diffuse-porous and ring-porous wood (McCulloh et al. 2004).”
