The amount of nitrogen used for photosynthesis modulates molecular evolution in plants
Genome and transcript sequences are composed of long strings of nucleotide monomers (A, C, G and T/U) that require different quantities of nitrogen atoms for biosynthesis. Here it is shown that the strength of selection acting on transcript nitrogen content is influenced by the amount of nitrogen pl...
