Viewing leaf structure and evolution from a hydraulic perspective (2010, background): “Clear evidence of the adaptive link between the gas-exchange capacity and hydraulic efficiency comes from studies of leaves (Sack et al. 2003; Brodribb et al. 2005), stems (Brodribb and Feild 2000; Santiago et al. 2004), roots (Becker et al. 1999) and whole plants (Sperry 2000; Meinzer 2002).”
Leaf venation: structure, function, development, evolution, ecology and applications in the past, present and future. (2013, background): “…and also with species’ growth form and ecology, being higher for species adapted to high vs low irradiance, and higher for crop herbs than for angiosperm trees, and, in turn, higher than for conifers and ferns (Brodribb&Holbrook, 2003; Sack et al., 2003; Sack&Holbrook, 2006; Brodribb et al., 2010).”
Drought tolerance as predicted by leaf water potential at turgor loss point varies strongly across species within an Amazonian forest (2015, neutral): “However, another pressure–volume curve trait, the leaf osmotic potential at full hydration (po), was repeatedly found to be an excellent correlate for ptlp (Sack et al. 2003; Lenz, Wright & Westoby 2006; Blackman, Brodribb & Jordan 2010; Scoffoni et al. 2011; Bartlett, Scoffoni & Sack 2012b).”
Assessing the causes and scales of the leaf economics spectrum using venation networks in Populus tremuloides (2013, result): “This venation theory is supported by several studies (Roth-Nebelsick et al. 2001; Sack et al. 2003; Sack & Holbrook 2006; Brodribb, Feild & Sack 2010; Boyce & Zwieniecki 2012; Simonin, Limm & Daw-son 2012) that link venation networks to multiple leaf traits.”
Rapid determination of comparative drought tolerance traits: using an osmometer to predict turgor loss point (2012, background): “…approximately 10–15 min per individ- ual leaf and an hour for six, which is typically sufficient replica- tion for reliable determination of species means (Sack et al. 2003; Hulshof & Swenson 2010), compared to the approxi- mately one or 2 days required to generate a p–v curve for 4–6 leaves.”
Using Phylogenetic, Functional and Trait Diversity to Understand Patterns of Plant Community Productivity (2009, background): “These measures allowed calculation of perimeter per area (P/A, cm?cm(22)), which is empirically correlated with leaf hydraulic conductance across a wide range of taxa [40].”
Diurnal depression of leaf hydraulic conductance in a tropical tree species (2004, neutral): “…37 mmol m-2 s-1 MPa-1 are among the highest values measured for tree species (cf. maximum for temperate species of 17 mmol m-2 s-1 MPa-1 in Vitis (Sack et al. 2003)), and even after a 50% loss of Kleaf, the residual conductivity is sufficient to sustain rapid recovery of YL if stomata close and…”
Interrelations among pressure–volume curve traits across species and water availability gradients (2006, background): “08 MPa (Bannister 1986, Sobrado 1986, Sack et al. 2003).”
Ethylene Role in Plant Growth, Development and Senescence: Interaction with Other Phytohormones (2017, background): “Limited water sources can also cause reductions in leaf size (Sack et al., 2003; Royer et al., 2005).”
Phylogenetic community structure in Minnesota oak savanna is influenced by spatial extent and environmental variation (2009, background): “…161 rosid 121 Poaceae 12 Poales 72 Rhamnaceae 55 Rosaceae 47 Solanaceae 41 Polygonaceae 28 Cyperaceae 16 Myrtales 88 Salicaceae 20 Sapindales 61 Fabaceae 56 Rosales 76 Polemoniaceae 35 Ericaceae 12 Ericales 100 Boraginaceae 59 Liliaceae 48 seedplant 325 euphyllophyte 400 Ranunculaceae 65”
Variation of stomatal traits from cold-temperate to tropical forests and association with water use efficiency (2018, neutral): “…communities living in the drier area often show an opportunistic mechanism with respect to moisture, i.e. being adapted to achieving high rates of stomatal conductance, photosynthesis and growth during periods when water is available (Grubb, 1998; Hetherington & Woodward, 2003; Sack et al., 2003).”
