Yes, we CAM! First evidence of CAM photosynthesis in a carnivorous plant
Evidence for weak, facultative CAM is reported for the first time in a carnivorous plant, i.e., in Mexican representatives of Pinguicula (Lentibulariaceae).

Former lab member @njorisfleck.bsky.social and colleagues just showed that some carnivorous plants do CAM photosynthesis! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

"Yes, we CAM! First evidence of CAM photosynthesis in a carnivorous plant" super happy to have been part of this work with @njorisfleck.bsky.social Prof Gudrun Kadereit, Andreas Fleischmann and Thibaud Messerschmid! I hope it's the first of many at LMU 👏😁🌵🎶
