The preprint of our work on convergent evolution of chloroplast proteins in C4 grasses is online on biorXiv.

I summarized our findings in this thread on Twitter.
New preprint with the amazing @l_jingjia. We tested the hypothesis that convergent evolution of the C4 #photosynthesis left *molecular marks* in multiple #chloroplast #genes. 🧬🌾
The short answer is yes, it did. 🧵#evolution #RuBisCOhttps://t.co/1MJqipuxB2— Claudio Casola (@ccasola) September 1, 2021
