Evidence for the role of transposons in the recruitment of cis-regulatory motifs during the evolution of C4 photosynthesis

BACKGROUND: C(4) photosynthesis evolved from C(3) photosynthesis and has higher light, water, and nitrogen use efficiencies. Several C(4) photosynthesis genes show cell-specific expression patterns, which are required for these high resource-use efficiencies. However, the mechanisms underlying the e...
