Carbon stable isotopic composition of soluble sugars in Tillandsia epiphytes varies in response to shifts in habitat

We studied C stable isotopic composition (δ(13)C) of bulk leaf tissue and extracted sugars of four epiphytic Tillandsia species to investigate flexibility in the use of crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) and C(3) photosynthetic pathways. Plants growing in two seasonally dry tropical forest reserves...
