Mohria caffrorum (L.) Desv. : a new, unique model organism for the study of desiccation tolerance
Vegetative desiccation tolerance is the ability of a plant to dry to equilibrium with its surrounding atmosphere and remain in this dry state for prolonged periods of time. Upon rehydration, these plants are able to regain full physiological functionality. Vegetative desiccation tolerance is common...
