Forty years of research into Crassulacean Acid Metabolism in the genus Clusia : anatomy, ecophysiology and evolution.
Clusia is the only genus containing dicotyledonous trees with a capacity to perform Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM). Since the discovery of CAM in Clusia, 40 years ago, several studies have highlighted the extraordinary plasticity and diversity of life forms, morphology, and photosynthetic physiology of this genus. In this review we...Luján, Manuel ; Leverett, Alistair ; Winter, Klaus
