Exploring molecular evolution of Rubisco in C3 and CAM Orchidaceae and Bromeliaceae

Abstract Background The CO2-concentrating mechanism associated to Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) alters the catalytic context for Rubisco by increasing CO2 availability and provides an advantage in particular ecological conditions. We hypothesized about the existence of molecular changes linked...
