Let G and G̃ be connected complex reductive Lie groups, G semisimple. Let Λ^+ be the monoid of dominant weights for a positive root system Δ^+, and let l(w) be the length of a Weyl group element w. Let V_λ denote an irreducible G-module of highest weight λ∈Λ^+. For any closed embedding ι:G̃⊂G, we consider Property (A): ∀λ∈Λ^+,∃q∈ℕ such that V_(qλ)^(G̃)0. A necessary condition for (A) is for G to have no simple factors to which G projects surjectively. We show that this condition is sufficient if G̃ is of type A₁ or E₈. We define and study an integral invariant of a root system, ℓ_G=min{ℓ^λ:λ∈Λ^+∖{0}}, where ℓ^λ=min{l(w):wλ∉Cone(Δ^+)}. We derive the following sufficient condition for (A), independent of ι: ℓ_G - #Δ̃^+ > 0 ⟹ (A). We compute ℓ_G and related data for all simple G, except E₈, where we obtain lower and upper bounds. We consider a stronger property (A-k) defined in terms of Geometric Invariant Theory, related to extreme values of codimensions of unstable loci, and derive a sufficient condition in the form ℓ_G - #Δ̃^+ > k. The invariant ℓ_G proves too week to handle G=SLₙ and we employ a companion ℓ_Gˢᵈ to infer (A-k) for a larger class of subgroups. We derive corollaries on Mori-theoretic properties of GIT-quotients.
