Gene turnover and contingency facilitated the repeated evolution of C4 photosynthesis in grasses
In grasses, almost all species belong to two evenly sized clades (BOP and PACMAD), yet the >20 independent origins of C4 photosynthesis in this family only occur in the PACMAD lineage. Here, we identi...
