• Stomatal Responses to Drought Stress and Air Humidity (2011, background): “To survive such conditions plants have developed growth strategies such as increased water use efficiency with C4- or CAM metabolism (Keeley and Rundel, 2003), succulent growth and extensive root systems (Henry et al.”
• Taxonomic, anatomical, and spatio-temporal variations in the stable carbon and nitrogen isotopic compositions of plants from an African savanna (2005, background): “For the purpose of general ecological studies, the KNP can be divided into four main ecozones, comprising northern and southern granites and basalts, respectively.”

• The Ecological Water-Use Strategies of Succulent Plants (2010, background): “CAM is a photosynthetic mode common in drought-avoiding succulent plants, as well as in some aquatic plants that experience severe diurnal reductions in CO2 availability (Keeley and Rundel, 2003).”
• Angiosperm Responses to a Low-CO2 World: CAM and C4 Photosynthesis as Parallel Evolutionary Trajectories (2012, background): “It is important to keep in mind, however, that as an aquatic CAM taxon, the factors driving the evolution of CAM in Isoetes are quite distinct from those found in terrestrial CAM taxa (Keeley 1990).”
• Evolutionary Legacy Effects on Ecosystems: Biogeographic Origins, Plant Traits, and Implications for Management in the Era of Global Change (2016, background): “The C4 photosynthetic pathway is hypothesized to have first emerged when [CO2] was declining in the Earth’s atmosphere 30–20 Ma and pathways that reduced photorespiratory losses were favored (Keeley & Rundel 2003, Sage et al. 2011).”
