Bundle sheath suberisation is required for C4 photosynthesis in a Setaria viridis mutant

Bundle sheath suberisation is required for C4 photosynthesis in a Setaria viridis mutant

Florence Danila et al. perform mutation screens on Setaria viridis and identify an ABCG transporter gene which serves as a step in the suberin synthesis pathway. This study demonstrates that a functional suberin lamellae is essential for efficient C4 photosynthesis in S. viridis.
