1. C₄-like Sesuvium sesuvioides (Aizoaceae) exhibits CAM in cotyledons and putative C₄-like + CAM metabolism in adult leaves as revealed by transcriptome analysis

   Background

   The co-occurrence of C ₄ and CAM photosynthesis in a single species seems to be unusual and rare. This is likely due to the difficulty in...
