Generalised dose–response curves are essential to understand how plants acclimate to
atmospheric CO2. We carried out a meta‐analysis of 630 experiments in which C3 plants …

ABSTRACT Several hypotheses, mainly Optimal Defense (OD), Carbon: Nutrient Balance
(CNB), Growth Rate (GR), and Growth-Differentiation Balance (GDB), have individually …

We conducted the most extensive meta‐analysis of plant and animal responses to elevated
CO2 to date. We analysed> 5000 data points extracted from 270 papers published between …

Context Forest landscapes worldwide are shaped by abiotic drivers such as fire, windstorms,
and drought, but also by biotic drivers like insect pests and pathogens. Although the effects …

Incidences of oak decline have occurred repeatedly during the past three centuries as well
as in the most recent decades. On the basis of historical records and dendrochronological …

Our aim in this study was to determine how well phenotypic variation in foliar concentrations
of carbon-based secondary compounds (CBSCs) in woody plants can be predicted on the …

Recent estimates for global warming predict increases in global mean surface air
temperatures (relative to 1990) of between 1 and 3.5° C, by 2100. The impact of such …

First, we report the results of the longest‐known field study (9 years) to examine the effects of
elevated carbon dioxide (CO2) on leaf miner densities in a scrub‐oak community at …

Interactions between insect herbivores and plants grown under conditions of ambient and
elevated CO 2 were investigated by analysing data on 43 herbivores, representing 61 plant …

The idea that the concentration of secondary metabolites in plant tissues is controlled by the
availability of carbon and nitrogen in the environment has been termed the carbon–nutrient …
