Alternative CAM modes provide environment-specific water-saving benefits in a leaf metabolic model
Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) evolved in arid environments as a water-saving alternative to C3 photosynthesis. There is great interest in engineering more drought-resistant crops by introducing CAM into C3 plants. However, it is unknown whether full CAM or alternative water-saving modes would b...
