Silicon enhancement of estimated plant biomass carbon accumulation under abiotic and biotic stresses. A meta-analysis
Abiotic and biotic stresses are the major factors limiting plant growth worldwide. Plants
exposed to abiotic and biotic stresses often cause reduction in plant biomass as well as crop …

Impacts of warming and elevated CO2 on a semi‐arid grassland are non‐additive, shift with precipitation, and reverse over time
It is unclear how elevated CO 2 (eCO 2) and the corresponding shifts in temperature and
precipitation will interact to impact ecosystems over time. During a 7‐year experiment in a …
