Spatial resolution of an integrated C4+CAM photosynthetic metabolism
C4 and CAM photosynthesis have repeatedly evolved in plants over the past 30 million
years. Because both repurpose the same set of enzymes but differ in their spatial and …

Dissecting molecular evolution in the highly diverse plant clade Caryophyllales using transcriptome sequencing
Many phylogenomic studies based on transcriptomes have been limited to “single-copy”
genes due to methodological challenges in homology and orthology inferences. Only a …

The genetics of convergent evolution: insights from plant photosynthesis
The tree of life is resplendent with examples of convergent evolution, whereby distinct
species evolve the same trait independently. Many highly convergent adaptations are also …
