A meta‐analysis of responses of C3 plants to atmospheric CO2: dose–response curves for 85 traits ranging from the molecular to the whole‐plant level

H Poorter, O Knopf, IJ Wright, AA Temme… - New …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
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 …

The Response of Natural Ecosystems to the Rising Global CO2 Levels

FA Bazzaz - Annual review of ecology and systematics, 1990 - JSTOR
Evidence from many sources shows that the concentration of atmospheric CO2 is steadily
rising (61, 17). This rise is strongly correlated with the increase in global consumption of …

Interspecific variation in the growth response of plants to an elevated ambient CO2 concentration

H Poorter - CO 2 and biosphere, 1993 - Springer
The effect of a doubling in the atmospheric CO 2 concentration on the growth of vegetative
whole plants was investigated. In a compilation of literature sources, the growth stimulation …

Elevated CO2 reduces the nitrogen concentration of plant tissues

MF Cotrufo, P Ineson, AY Scott - Global Change Biology, 1998 - Wiley Online Library
We summarize the impacts of elevated CO2 on the N concentration of plant tissues and
present data to support the hypothesis that reductions in the quality of plant tissue commonly …

Plant reproduction under elevated CO2 conditions: a meta‐analysis of reports on 79 crop and wild species

LM Jablonski, X Wang, PS Curtis - New Phytologist, 2002 - Wiley Online Library
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 …

Plant responses to atmospheric CO2 enrichment with emphasis on roots and the rhizosphere

HH Rogers, GB Runion, SV Krupa - Environmental pollution, 1994 - Elsevier
Empirical records provide incontestable evidence of global changes: foremost among these
changes is the rising concentration of CO 2 in the earth's atmosphere. Plant growth is nearly …

Resource use efficiency in agriculture

CT de Wit - Agricultural systems, 1992 - Elsevier
Trajectories over time of nitrogen use and yield show that the fertilizer is used as efficiently at
the high end of the yield range, as at the low end. Apparently, any decrease in marginal …

13C discrimination during CO2 assimilation by the terrestrial biosphere

J Lloyd, GD Farquhar - Oecologia, 1994 - Springer
