Laying the Foundation for Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM) Biodesign: Expression of the C 4 Metabolism Cycle Genes of CAM in Arabidopsis

Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a specialized mode of photosynthesis that exploits a temporal CO pump with nocturnal CO uptake and concentration to reduce photorespiration, improve water-use efficiency (WUE), and optimize the adaptability of plants to hotter and drier climates. Introducing the...
