Photosynthesis is the vital metabolism of the plant affected by abiotic stress such as high
temperature and elevated [CO2] levels, which ultimately affect the source-sink relationship …

Background In contrast to C3 photosynthesis, the response of C4 photosynthesis to water
stress has been less-well studied in spite of the significant contribution of C4 plants to the …

Since the publication of the third edition of the Handbook of Plant and Crop Stress,
continuous discoveries in the fields of plant and crop environmental stresses and their …

Photorespiration is a high-flux pathway that operates alongside carbon assimilation in C3
plants. Because most higher plant species photosynthesize using only the C3 pathway …

The global environment is changing with increasing temperature and atmospheric carbon
dioxide concentration,[CO2]. Because these two factors are concomitant, and the global …

C4 plants contribute≈ 20% of global gross primary productivity, and uncertainties regarding
their responses to rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations may limit predictions of future …

Reproductive traits are key characteristics for predicting the response of communities and
ecosystems to global change.• We used meta‐analysis to integrate data on eight …

The alarming and unprecedented rise in the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse
gases under global climate change warrants an urgent need to understand the synergistic …

Despite mounting evidence showing that C4 plants can accumulate more biomass at
elevated CO2 partial pressure (p (CO2)), the underlying mechanisms of this response are …

In 27 C4 grasses grown under adequate or deficient nitrogen (N) supplies, N-use efficiency
at the photosynthetic (assimilation rate per unit leaf N) and whole-plant (dry mass per total …
