Evolutionary ecology of plant defences against herbivores (2011, background): “Woody plants from dry environments are particularly likely to be highly sectored, perhaps as a means of conserving moisture or avoiding hydraulic failure (Waisel, Liphschitz & Kuller 1972; Zanne et al. 2006; Schenk et al. 2008).”
Leaf Trait Diversification and Design in Seven Rare Taxa of the Hawaiian Plantago Radiation (2009, background): “…or few individuals and that this would be especially justified for rare species (e.g., McNab 2003; Meinzer et al. 2003); other studies indicated that even with low replication within taxa, trait correlations can still be calculated reliably across taxa (Zanne et al. 2006; Swenson and Enquist 2008).”
The ecology and evolution of induced resistance against herbivores (2011, background): “Woody plants from dry environments are particularly likely to be highly sectored, perhaps as a means of conserving moisture or avoiding hydraulic failure (Waisel, Liphschitz & Kuller 1972; Zanne et al. 2006; Schenk et al. 2008).”
