Designing resilient and sustainable grasslands for a drier future: Adaptive strategies, functional traits and biotic interactions (2013, methodology): “Genotypes that survive best can reach very low leaf water potentials such as -5 to -7 MPa in the remaining meristems (Norton et al. 2006; Poirier et al. 2012) even though their foliage senescence is almost complete under severe drought.”
Plant drought survival under climate change and strategies to improve perennial grasses. A review (2016, background): “The robust drought tolerance of cv Medly under moderately severe droughts and the poor drought survival of Lutetia have been subsequently confirmed by Poirier et al. (2012).”
