Comparative transcriptomics of tropical woody plants supports fast and furious strategy along the leaf economics spectrum in lianas
Lianas, climbing woody plants, influence the structure and function of tropical forests. Climbing traits have evolved multiple times, including ancestral groups such as gymnosperms and pteridophytes, but the genetic basis of the liana strategy is largely unknown. Here, we use a comparative transcrip...
