Improving C3 photosynthesis by exploiting natural genetic variation: Hirschfeldia incana as a model species

We describe the basic biology and evolutionary history of the species and report preliminary data on its photosynthetic characteristics. Our findings suggestH. incana is an excellent model species for studies aiming at understanding natural genetic variation in photosynthetic efficiency.
