dc.description.abstractCraterostigma 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.en_ZA
