Dissecting Adaptation Mechanisms to Contrasting Solar Irradiance in the Mediterranean Shrub <i>Cistus incanus</i>

Molecular mechanisms that are the base of the strategies adopted by Mediterranean plants to cope with the challenges imposed by limited or excessive solar radiation during the summer season have received limited attention. In our study, conducted on <i>C. incanus</i> plants growing in th...
