Photorespiratory metabolism is essential for plants to maintain functional photosynthesis in
an oxygen‐containing environment. Because the oxygenation reaction of Rubisco is …

Nitrogen is an essential macronutrient for plant growth and development and plays an
important role in the whole life process of plants. Nitrogen is an important component of …

Storage nitrogen (N) is a buffer pool for maintaining leaf growth and synthesizing
photosynthetic proteins, but the dynamics of its forms within the life cycle of a single leaf and …

The photosynthetic capacity of leaves is determined by their content of nitrogen (N). Nitrogen
involved in photosynthesis is divided between soluble proteins and thylakoid membrane …

Photosynthesis is a complex process that is intrinsically determined by two main
components: the CO 2 diffusion from the atmosphere to the chloroplast and the biochemistry …

The leaf economics spectrum (LES) is an ecophysiological concept describing the trade-offs
of leaf structural and physiological traits, and has been widely investigated on multiple …

The origins of agriculture were key events in human history, during which people came to
depend for their food on small numbers of animal and plant species. However, the biological …

Abstract Since the Industrial Revolution, human activity has greatly altered the Earth's
reactive nitrogen (N) cycle, leading to widespread N pollution that can have adverse effects …

Domestication involves dramatic phenotypic and physiological diversifications due to
successive selection by breeders toward high yield and quality. Although photosynthetic …

Crops have resource-acquisitive leaf traits, which are usually attributed to the process of
domestication. However, early choices of wild plants amenable for domestication may also …
