• An investigation into the role of light during desiccation of three angiosperm resurrection plants (2003, methodology): “We have proposed that these homoiochlorophyllous plants use leaf folding and anthocyanin accumulation as a means of minimizing light–chlorophyll interaction and thus photo-oxidative damage (Sherwin & Farrant 1998; Farrant 2000).”
• The discovery, scope, and puzzle of desiccation tolerance in plants (2000, background): “Other, less visible mechanisms of desiccation tolerance also differ between angiosperm species, such as the types of anti-oxidant enzymes upregulated during dehydration and changes in vacuolation or cell wall properties that counter physical stress (e.g., Vicre et al. 1999; Farrant 2000).”
• 2 Opportunistic Growth and Desiccation Tolerance: The Ecological Success of Poikilohydrous Autotrophs (2007, background): “Comparative, mainly electronmicroscopical studies illustrate these differences (Sherwin and Farrant 1996, 1998, Farrant 2000).”
• Do anthocyanins function as osmoregulators in leaf tissues (2002, background): “During this process, resurrection plants replace their large central vacuole with smaller vacuoles and increase their anthocyanin content three- to fourfold over normal levels (Farrant, 2000; Sherwin & Farrant, 1998).”
• Insights into the cellular mechanisms of desiccation tolerance among angiosperm resurrection plant species (2004, unknown): “Desiccation tolerance strategies of angiosperm resurrection plants 1331 effective transpiring surface during early stage dehydration and/or to prevent excessive irradiation of air-dry younger tissue (Gaff 1989; Farrant 2000).”
• The Effects Of Drought On Plants And Tolerance Mechanisms (Review) (2010, background): “Myrothamnus flabellifolius, Craterostigma wilmsii (13, 38) ve Eragrostis nindensis (39) gibi bazı türlerde mezofil hücreleri, hücre duvarlarındaki katlanmayla ilişkili olarak hücre hacminde belirgin bir azalma gösterir.”
• Resurrection Plants: The Puzzle of Surviving Extreme Vegetative Desiccation (2005, background): “A determinant role in defense mechanisms from free radicals is played by the activity of antioxidant systems, whose upregulation during dehydration is a common event in resurrection plants (Ingram and Bartels, 1996; Navari-Izzo et al., 1997a, b; Sherwin and Farrant, 1998; Farrant, 2000; Kranner, 200”
• Nature's Swiss Army Knife: The Diverse Protective Roles of Anthocyanins in Leaves (2004, background): “Anthocyanins, for example, are associated with enhanced resistance to the effects of chilling and freezing [82, 83, 84, 85, 86], to heavy metal contamination [87, 88, 89, 90], to desiccation [91, 92, 93], and to wounding [76, 94, 95].”

• Physiological responses of three maize cultivars to drought stress and recovery. (2009, methodology): “The RWC content was calculated using the standard formula [(FW − DW)/(HydW − DW)*100] previously determined by Farrant (2000), where FW, HydW and DW are the leaf fresh weight, hydrated (full turgor) and dry weights, respectively.”
• Antioxidant enzyme activity, proline accumulation, leaf area and cell membrane stability in water stressed Amaranthus leaves (2014, background): “Increased SOD production has been correlated to tolerance to cold stress (Gao et al., 2009), ozone stress (Calatayud et al., 2010) and water stress (Ahmed et al., 2009; Farrant, 2000).”
• An overview of mechanisms of desiccation tolerance in selected angiosperm resurrection plants (2007, unknown): “Various mechanisms are used to prevent ROS production during drying and rehydration (Sherwin and Farrant 1998; Farrant 2000; Farrant et al. 2003) such as leaf folding and shading of the inner leaves (Craterostigma sp.) or the adaxial surfaces (M. flabellifolia) from light (Fig.”
• Physiological and molecular insights into drought tolerance (2002, background): “belongs to a small group of angiosperms, referred to as “resurrection plants” because they are capable of tolerating extremes of desiccation (Farrant, 2000; Gaff, 1977).”
