Disequilibrium evolution of the Fructose1,6-bisphosphatase gene family leads to their functional biodiversity in Gossypium species

Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBP) is a key enzyme in the plant sucrose synthesis pathway, in the Calvin cycle, and plays an important role in photosynthesis regulation in green plants. However, no systemic analysis of FBPs has been reported in Gossypium species.
