C4 photosynthesis is one of the most prolific complex traits in the biosphere, having independently evolved over 70 times in flowering plants. Understanding C4 evolution is providing insights into how evolution builds complex life forms that can transform the biosphere.
Past events
A fundamental goal of evolutionary biology is to understand the processes that contribute to patterns of genomic variation and how this relates to adaptive variation (phenotypes) and ultimately fitness.
While the path by which a scientific advance is made is not particularly relevant to science itself, the path is everything for practicing scientists.
Will ecosystems maintain their biodiversity and function under global environmental change, and continue to sequester carbon and slow climate change?
Australian native plants are remarkably tolerant to a wide range of environmental conditions in which they grow.
Photosynthesis and leaf respiration are key metabolic processes for plant growth and their carbon exchange with the atmosphere are the largest within the global carbon cycle.
