The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Plant Fiber Formation: State of the Art, Recent and Expected Progress, and Open Questions (2012, background): “A large body of data has thus been accumulated for alfalfa xylem and schlerenchyma fibers based on plant development and genetic transformation (Vallet et al., 1996; Jung and Engels, 2002; Nakashima et al., 2008).”
Maize stem tissues: cell wall concentration and composition during development (2006, background): “The localization of lignin to only protoxylem vessels in elongating internodes is apparently a general feature of stem development in forages as it has also been observed in alfalfa (Jung and Engels, 2002).”
Lignocellulosic Materials Into Biohydrogen and Biomethane: Impact of Structural Features and Pretreatment (2013, background): “These different parameters modify the architecture and supramolecular organization of the cell wall and influence its accessibility and digestibility (Akin et al., 1995; Chang and Holtzapple, 2000; Jung and Engels, 2002; Laureano-Perez et al., 2005; Tian et al., 2010).”
Maize Stem Tissues: Impact of Development on Cell Wall Degradability (2006, background): “That these lignified ring structures from protoxylem vessels were the only nondegradable tissue of elongating maize internodes agrees with observations for stem protoxylem vessels in elongating alfalfa internodes (Jung and Engels, 2002).”
