Parallel evolution of storage roots in morning glories (Convolvulaceae).

BMC plant biology - 29 May 2018

Eserman Lauren A, Jarret Robert L, Leebens-Mack James H

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Storage roots are an ecologically and agriculturally important plant trait that have evolved numerous times in angiosperms. Storage roots primarily function to store carbohydrates underground as reserves for perennial species. In morning glories, storage roots are well characterized in the crop species sweetpotato, where starch accumulates in storage roots. This starch-storage tissue proliferates, and...
