The molecular evolution of C4 photosynthesis: opportunities for understanding and improving the world's most productive plants

This review summarizes our understanding of the molecular evolution of C4 photosynthesis and suggests how this understanding can inform strategies to improve the pathway. Abstract C4 photosynthesis is a convergent evolutionary trait that enhances photosynthetic efficiency in a variety of environment...
