C(2) photosynthesis generates about 3-fold elevated leaf CO(2) levels in the C(3)–C(4) intermediate species Flaveria pubescens

Formation of a photorespiration-based CO(2)-concentrating mechanism in C(3)–C(4) intermediate plants is seen as a prerequisite for the evolution of C(4) photosynthesis, but it is not known how efficient this mechanism is. Here, using in vivo Rubisco carboxylation-to-oxygenation ratios as a proxy to...
