Induction of Crassulacean acid metabolism by water limitation

Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM), a key adaptation of photosynthetic carbon fixation to limited water availability, is characterized by nocturnal CO2 fixation and daytime CO2 re‐assimilation, which generally results in improved water‐use efficiency. However, CAM plants display a remarkable degree...
