Adaptive evolution of carnivory in <i>Nepenthes</i> pitcher plants: a comparative transcriptomics and proteomics perspective

2023-01-08

Abstract excerpt

While trait diversity associated with evolutionary radiations is easily recognized, their function and adaptive relevance often remain elusive. Here we study the evolution of carnivory genes in Nepenthes , an iconic radiation of carnivorous pitcher plants. We investigate 13 species chosen to represent the diversity of nutrient acquisition strategies, geography and climates covered by the genus. Using a combinatio...
