Abstract:A trade-off between allocated resources for photosynthesis and stress
tolerance is generally observed in nature. Thus, the search for outlier
species breaking this trend is an interesting approach to identity new
mechanisms for plant breeding purposes. Hypothetically, outlier
extremophyte species present a distinctive arrangement of physiological
functions that favor stress tolerance mechanisms without jeopardizing
investment allocation into photosynthesis. We explored this trade-off,
analyzing twenty-one plan… Show more
