Abstract:The remarkable capacity of plants to tolerate and accumulate tremendous amount of nickel is a complex adaptative trait that appeared independently in more than 700 species distributed in about fifty families. Nickel hyperaccumulation is thus proposed as a model to investigate the evolution of complex traits in plants. However, the mechanisms involved in nickel hyperaccumulation are still poorly understood in part because comparative transcriptomic analyses struggle to identify genes linked to this trait from a… Show more
