• Research Advances in Mechanisms of Turfgrass Tolerance to Abiotic Stresses: From Physiology to Molecular Biology (2014, background): “High root to shoot ratio is a useful trait to select for in developing drought-resistant tall fescues (Carrow and Duncan, 2003; Karcher et al., 2008).”
• Designing resilient and sustainable grasslands for a drier future: Adaptive strategies, functional traits and biotic interactions (2013, background): “…(including root apices) are the key surviving organs, adaptive responses contribute to the dehydration avoidance of theses tissues, through the crucial maintenance of a minimum water supply (McWilliam and Kramer 1968; Karcher et al. 2008) even at low water potential (Volaire and Lelievre 2001).”
