Facultative crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) describes the optional use of CAM
photosynthesis, typically under conditions of drought stress, in plants that otherwise employ …

In plants exhibiting crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM), CAM photosynthesis almost
always occurs together with C3 photosynthesis, and occasionally with C4 photosynthesis …

Abstract Background In obligate Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM), up to 99% of CO2
assimilation occurs during the night, therefore supporting the hypothesis that CAM is …

Global climate change and population growth are persistently posing threats to natural
resources (eg, freshwater) and agricultural production. Crassulacean acid metabolism …

Publisher Summary Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is traditionally illustrated by
succulent plants from arid, semi-desert regions whereby nocturnal stomata1 opening, CO 2 …

We studied the physiological responses to abscisic acid (ABA) when 2-year-old potted
plants of kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa) were grown under moisture stress. Leaves treated with …

Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a celebrated example of convergent evolution in
plant ecophysiology. However, many unanswered questions surround the relationships …

Physiology and nutritional quality of a facultative CAM plant Mesembryanthemum
crystallinum under drought stress alone are poorly understood. To induce drought, M …

An investigation was carried out into the water relations of CAM and C3 bromeliads in their
natural habitat during the dry season in Trinidad. Measurements were made of xylem …

In this paper we report for the first time the occurrence of an inducible weak CAM in leaves of
Talinwn triangulare (Jacq.) Willd. This plant is a terrestrial perennial deciduous herb with …
