The conductance of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the substomatal cavities to the initial sites of
CO2 fixation (gm) can significantly reduce the availability of CO2 for photosynthesis. There …

Accumulation and distribution of zinc within Miscanthus× giganteus plants grown on
elevated Zn concentrations and their photosynthetic performance were investigated. High …

A nitrogen supply is necessary for all plants. The multifaceted reasons why this nutrient
stimulates plant dry weight accumulation are assessed herein. We compared tomato plants …

Miscanthus× giganteus and Zea mays, closely-related C 4 grasses, originated from warm
climates react differently to low temperature. To investigate the response to cold (12–14° C) …

Combined measurements of photosynthetic 13 C discrimination (Δ) and gas exchange can
be used to estimate bundle-sheath leakiness (Φ), a key efficiency parameter for the CO 2 …

Bundle-sheath leakiness (ϕ) is a key parameter of the CO2-concentrating mechanism of C4
photosynthesis and is related to leaf-level intrinsic water use efficiency (WUEi). This work …

Low light conditions not only induce leaf senescence, but also photosynthetic acclimation.
This study aimed to determine whether plants exhibit photosynthetic acclimation during low …

Mineral nutrient supplementation is a vital strategy to detoxify the lethal effects of salinity
stress induced by sodium chloride. To explore the role of mineral nutrition (nitrogen), a …

The continuous increases of atmospheric temperature and CO2 concentration will impact
global photosynthesis. However, there are few studies considering the interaction of …

Nitrogen (N) is one of the major nutrients influencing photosynthesis and productivity of C4
plants as well as C3 plants. C4 photosynthesis operates through close coordination …
