Ecological and evolutionary significance of crassulacean acid metabolism in the montane genus puya (Bromeliaceae)
<p>Little is known about the evolution and ecology of crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) in the genus <em>Puya</em> Molina. CAM is a photosynthetic pathway typified by nocturnal CO2 fixation and is regarded as a water-saving mechanism. <em>Puya</em> is one of the larg...
