- Resurrection Plants: The Puzzle of Surviving Extreme Vegetative Desiccation (2005, background): “In all the resurrection plants studied, the predominant sugar involved in mechanisms of protection from desiccation is sucrose (Ingram and Bartels, 1996; Scott, 2000).”
- Insights into the cellular mechanisms of desiccation tolerance among angiosperm resurrection plant species (2004, unknown): “Trehalose occurs predominantly in desiccation-tolerant less complex organisms including some vascular plants whereas sucrose is found in all angiosperms and mosses studied to date (Kaiser & Gaff 1985; Drennan et al. 1993; Ghasempour et al. 1998; Scott 2000; Whittaker et al. 2001).”
- Designing resilient and sustainable grasslands for a drier future: Adaptive strategies, functional traits and biotic interactions (2013, background): “At the other extreme, desiccation tolerance is only possessed by a rare group of angiosperms termed resurrection or poikilohydric plants (Gaff 1971), which can desiccate to air dryness for long periods, but revive rapidly upon re-watering (Scott 2000).”
- An overview of mechanisms of desiccation tolerance in selected angiosperm resurrection plants (2007, unknown): “In angiosperm vegetative tissues, while some repair is probably inevitable, considerable and complex protection mechanisms are laid down during drying to minimize the need for extensive repair (Gaff 1989; Farrant 2000; Scott 2000; Alpert and Oliver 2002; Vicre et al. 2003, 2004a; Bartels 2005; Illin”
- 2 Opportunistic Growth and Desiccation Tolerance: The Ecological Success of Poikilohydrous Autotrophs (2007, background): “…current literature discusses poikilohydrous plants mainly as a means of explaining basic mechanisms of desiccation tolerance (Hartung et al. 1998, Scott 2000, Bartels and Salamini 2001, Rascio and Rocca 2005) instead of exploring their origin, life history, and ecology (Raven 1999, Porembski and…”
- Vegetative desiccation tolerance: Is it a goldmine for bioengineering crops? (2009, background): “habitats of vegetative desiccation-tolerant plants are often deficient in mineral and organic nutrients [22].”
