The elevation of atmospheric CO 2 concentration has a strong impact on the physiology of
C3 plants, far beyond photosynthesis and C metabolism. In particular, it reduces the …

Photosynthetic carbon converted to sucrose is vital for plant growth. Sucrose acts as a
signaling molecule and a primary energy source that coordinates the source and sink …

The impact of waterlogging on crops has increased during the last decades due to climate
change, being considered the second most important abiotic stress after drought in soybean …

Plant nutrient acquisition is tightly regulated by resource availability and metabolic needs,
implying the existence of communication between roots and shoots to ensure their …

Symbiotic nodules formed on legume roots with rhizobia fix atmospheric N2. Bacteria reduce
N2 to NH4+ that is assimilated into amino acids by the plant. In return, the plant provides …

Abnormally altered precipitation patterns induced by climate change have profound global
effects on crop production. However, the plant functional responses to various precipitation …

Growth and productivity of plants primarily depend on the balanced distribution of carbon (C)
and nitrogen (N) among different organs. Previous studies on crop improvement have …

Effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), elevated carbon dioxide (eCO2), and their
interaction on nutrient accumulation of leguminous plants and soil fertility is unknown. Plant …

Rising atmospheric carbon dioxide [CO 2] is a main climate change driver, and soil
respiration is the most relevant contributor to ecosystem respiration. However, the soil …

Metropolitan areas are the most anthropogenically active places but there is a lack of
knowledge in carbon dioxide (CO 2) spatial distribution in suburban and urban areas. In this …
