Explicit Loading was added in Entity Framework Core v1.1. See Microsoft Docs

From the docs:

using (var context = new BloggingContext())
{
    var blog = context.Blogs
    .Single(b => b.BlogId == 1);

    context.Entry(blog)
        .Collection(b => b.Posts)
        .Load();

    context.Entry(blog)
        .Reference(b => b.Owner)
        .Load();
}
