The effect of drying rate on the resurrection species Craterostigma wilmsii (homoiochlorophyllous) and Xerophyta humilis (poikilochlorophyllous)

Bibliography: leaves 90-98.Craterostigma wilmsii and Xerophyta humilis are angiosperm resurrection species that employ different strategies in dealing with desiccation and the related light stress. C. wilmsii is homoiochlorophyllous in that it retains its chlorophyll throughout dehydration, while X. humilis, a poikilochlorophyllous resurrection plant, breaks down its photosynthetic apparatus during drying
