C <sub>4</sub> photosynthesis and climate through the lens of optimality

2016-04-15

Abstract excerpt

CO 2 , temperature, water availability and light intensity were all potential selective pressures to propel the initial evolution and global expansion of C 4 photosynthesis over the last 30 million years. To tease apart how the primary selective pressures varied along this evolutionary trajectory, we coupled photosynthesis and hydraulics models while optimizing photosynthesis over stomatal resistance and leaf/fi...
