Morphological traits and water use strategies in seedlings of Mediterranean coexisting species (2010, unknown): “Species composition of the mature vegetation is determined through the differential survival and growth patterns exhibited by seedlings (Levin and Schmidt 1985; Pratt et al. 2007).”
Linkage between water stress tolerance and life history type in seedlings of nine chaparral species (Rhamnaceae) (2008, methodology): “Longer stems and roots were used for non-sprouting species because a larger centrifuge rotor was needed to generate the high negative pressures (< –10 MPa) required to fully embolize the stems and roots of these species (Pratt et al. 2007b).”
Resprouting as a key functional trait: how buds, protection and resources drive persistence after fire. (2013, background): “For example, basal resprouters are shorter, have higher RMF, higher seed mass lower leaf mass area (LMA), and lower water stress tolerance for seedlings than nonsprouters (Kruger et al., 1997; Bell, 2001; Knox&Clarke, 2005; Schwilk&Ackerly, 2005; Paula & Pausas, 2006; Pratt et al., 2007; Saura-Mas &”
The Ecological Water-Use Strategies of Succulent Plants (2010, background): “The capacitance values of polysaccharides are so high, however, that they lose the bulk of their stored water at potentials higher than are normally achieved in tissues, even under well-hydrated conditions (e.g. > 70% of water lost at 0.2 MPa; Nobel et al., 1992a).”
