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
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 …

Photosynthesis across African cassava germplasm is limited by Rubisco and mesophyll conductance at steady state, but by stomatal conductance in fluctuating light
Summary Sub‐Saharan Africa is projected to see a 55% increase in food demand by 2035,
where cassava (Manihot esculenta) is the most widely planted crop and a major calorie …

The use and misuse of V c,max in Earth System Models
A Rogers - Photosynthesis research, 2014 - Springer
Abstract Earth System Models (ESMs) aim to project global change. Central to this aim is the
need to accurately model global carbon fluxes. Photosynthetic carbon dioxide assimilation …
