Two biochemical pathways, known as C3 and C4, account for the photosynthesis of most plants, and C4 plants evolved from C3 ancestors. This project will identify anatomical, biochemical and genetic changes that led to the evolution of C4 plants, aiding development of plant varieties with increased yield and ability to tolerate climate change effects.

两种生物化学途径，称为C3和C4，占大多数植物的光合作用，C4植物从C3祖先进化而来。该项目将确定导致C4植物进化的解剖学，生物化学和遗传变化，帮助开发具有增加产量和耐受气候变化影响能力的植物品种。
