Effect of Elevated CO2 on the Photosynthesis, Respiration and Growth of Perennial Ryegrass

Single, seed-grown plants of ryegrass (Lolium perenne L. cv.Melle) were grown for 49 d from the early seedling stage ingrowth cabinets at a day/night temperature of 20/15 C, witha 12 h photoperiod, and a CO₂ concentration of either 340 or680µI 1^–1 CO₂. Following complete acclimation tothe environmental regimes, leaf and whole plant CO₂ effluxesand influxes were measured using infra-red gas analysis techniques.Elevated CO₂ increased rates of photosynthesis of young, fullyexpanded leaves by 35–46% and of whole plants by morethan 50%. For both leaves and whole plants acclimation to 680µI^–1 CO₂ reduced rates of photosynthesis in bothCO₂ regimes, compared with plants acclimated to 340µll^–1. There was no significant effect of CO₂ regime onrespiration rates of either leaves or whole plants, althoughleaves developed in elevated CO₂ exhibited generally lower ratesthan those developed in 340µI I^–1 CO₂. Initially the seedling plants in elevated CO₂ grew faster thantheir counterparts in 340µI I^–1 CO₂, but this effectquickly petered out and final plant weights differed by onlyc. 10%. Since the total area of expanded and unexpanded laminaewas unaffected by CO₂ regime, specific leaf area was persistently13–40% lower in elevated CO₂ while, similarly, root/shootratio was also reduced throughout the experiment. Elevated CO₂reduced tissue nitrogen contents of expanded leaves, but hadno effect on the nitrogen contents of unexpanded leaves, sheathsor roots. The lack of a pronounced effect of elevated CO₂ on plant growthwas primarily due to the fact that CO₂ concentration did notinfluence tiller (branch) numbers. In the absence of an effecton tiller numbers, any possible weight increment was restrictedto the c. 2.5 leaves of each tiller. The reason for the lackof an effect on tillering is not known.

CO2 Exchange and Growth of the Crassulacean Acid Metabolism Plant Opuntia ficus-indica under Elevated CO2 in Open-Top Chambers

CO2 uptake, water vapor conductance, and biomass production of Opuntia ficus-indica, a Crassulacean acid metabolism species, were studied at CO2 concentrations of 370, 520, and 720 [mu]L L-1 in open-top chambers during a 23-week period. Nine weeks after planting, daily net CO2 uptake for basal cladodes at 520 and 720 [mu]L L-1 of CO2 was 76 and 98% higher, respectively, than at 370 [mu]L L-1. Eight weeks after daughter cladodes emerged, their daily net CO2 uptake was 35 and 49% higher at 520 and 720 [mu]L L-1 of C02, respectively, than at 370 [mu]L L-1. Daily water-use efficiency was 88% higher under elevated CO2 for basal cladodes and 57% higher for daughter cladodes. The daily net CO2 uptake capacity for basal cladodes increased for 4 weeks after planting and then remained fairly constant, whereas for daughter cladodes, it increased with cladode age, became maximal at 8 to 14 weeks, and then declined. The percentage enhancement in daily net CO2 uptake caused by elevated CO2 was greatest initially for basal cladodes and at 8 to 14 weeks for daughter cladodes. The chlorophyll content per unit fresh weight of chlorenchyma for daughter cladodes at 8 weeks was 19 and 62% lower in 520 and 720 [mu]L L-1 of CO2, respectively, compared with 370 [mu]L L-1. Despite the reduced chlorophyll content, plant biomass production during 23 weeks in 520 and 720 [mu]L L-1 of CO2 was 21 and 55% higher, respectively, than at 370 [mu]L L-1. The root dry weight nearly tripled as the C02 concentration was doubled, causing the root/shoot ratio to increase with CO2 concentration. During the 23-week period, elevated CO2 significantly increased CO2 uptake and biomass production of O. ficus-indica.     

Wheat Response to CO2 Enrichment: Growth and CO2 Exchanges at Two Plant Densities

Du Cloux, H. C, André, M., Daguenet, A. and Massinuno,J. 1987. Wheat response to CO₂ enrichment: Growth and CO₂ exchangesat two plant densities.—J. exp. Bot. 38: 1421–1431. The vegetative growth of wheat (Triticum aestivum L., var. Capitole)was followed for almost 40 d after germination in controlledconditions. Four different treatments were carried out by combiningtwo air concentrations of CO₂, either normal (330 mm³ dm ³)or doubled (660 mm³ dm ³) with two plant densities, either 200plants m ² or 40 plants m ². Throughout the experiment the CO₂gas exchanges of each canopy were measured 24 h d¹. These provideda continuous growth curve for each treatment, which were comparedwith dry weights. After a small stimulation at the start (first13 d), no further effect of CO₂ enrichment was observed on relativegrowth rate (RGR). However, RGR was stimulated throughout theexperiment when plotted as a function of biomass. The finalstimulation ol dry weight at 660 mm³ dm ³ CO₂ was a factor of1·45 at high density and 1·50 at low density,contrary to other studies, no diminution of this CO₂ effecton dry weight was observed over time. Nevertheless, at low density,a transient additional enhancement of biomass (up to 1·70)was obtained at a leaf area index (LAI) below 1. This effectwas attributed to a different build up of the gain of carbonin the case of an isolated plant or a closed canopy. In theformer, the stimulation of leaf area and the net assimilationrate are both involved; in the latter the enhancement becomesindependent of the effect on leaf area because the canopy photosynthesisper unit ground area as a function of LAI reaches a plateau.

Carbon-based Secondary Compounds at Elevated CO2

From literature sources we compiled the data on carbon-based-secondary compounds CBSC (phenolics and terpenoids) and biomass of 17 plant species grown at different CO₂ concentrations under low and high nutrient availabilities. With a low nutrient availability a possible inverse correlation was found between the biomass and CBSC changes. On the contrary, under a high nutrient availability, both the CBSC and biomass increased with elevated CO₂. The wide variation in the CBSC production among species and compounds (larger responses in phenolics than in terpenoids) indicates that the allocation to CBSC may not completely be governed by changes in CO₂ and nutrient availabilities per se. Yet the comparison shows that elevated CO₂ generally loads the carbon into CBSC [their leaf concentration increased an overall average of 14 % at 700 umol(CO₂) mol-r] which may improve our understanding of the carbon storage and cycling in ecosystems under the “global change” of climate.

Growth in Elevated CO2 Can Both Increase and Decrease Photochemistry and Photoinhibition of Photosynthesis in a Predictable Manner. Dactylis glomerata Grown in Two Levels of Nitrogen Nutrition

Biochemically based models of C(3) photosynthesis can be used to predict that when photosynthesis is limited by the amount of Rubisco, increasing atmospheric CO(2) partial pressure (pCO(2)) will increase light-saturated linear electron flow through photosystem II (J(t)). This is because the stimulation of electron flow to the photosynthetic carbon reduction cycle (J(c)) will be greater than the competitive suppression of electron flow to the photorespiratory carbon oxidation cycle (J(o)). Where elevated pCO(2) increases J(t), then the ratio of absorbed energy dissipated photochemically to that dissipated non-photochemically will rise. These predictions were tested on Dactylis glomerata grown in fully controlled environments, at either ambient (35 Pa) or elevated (65 Pa) pCO(2), and at two levels of nitrogen nutrition. As was predicted, for D. glomerata grown in high nitrogen, J(t) was significantly higher in plants grown and measured at elevated pCO(2) than for plants grown and measured at ambient pCO(2). This was due to a significant increase in J(c) exceeding any suppression of J(o). This increase in photochemistry at elevated pCO(2) protected against photoinhibition at high light. For plants grown at low nitrogen, J(t) was significantly lower in plants grown and measured at elevated pCO(2) than for plants grown and measured at ambient pCO(2). Elevated pCO(2) again suppressed J(o); however growth in elevated pCO(2) resulted in an acclimatory decrease in leaf Rubisco content that removed any stimulation of J(c). Consistent with decreased photochemistry, for leaves grown at low nitrogen, the recovery from a 3-h photoinhibitory treatment was slower at elevated pCO(2).     

植物对大气CO2浓度升高的光合适应机理

光合作用对大气中CO2浓度升高适应的可能原因主要表现在以下几个方面:由于CO2浓度升高,碳水化合物过量积累,光合电子传递链中质体醌与过氧化氢(H2O2)的氧化还原信号对光合作用发生反馈抑制;核酮糖1,5-二磷酸羧化/加氧酶(Rubisco)的含量及其活性下降;气孔状态发生变化.此外,植物体内C/N平衡、生长调节物质和己糖激酶对光合基因表达水平的调控等多个方面会对光合适应产生影响.     

不同氮营养水平下草莓叶片光合作用对高CO2浓度的适应

研究了不同氮素水平（12mmol／L,4mmol／L,0、4mmol／L）下生长的‘丰香’草莓在富C02（700μL/L）和大气CO（390μL/L）下的光合作用。结果表明,高氮（12mmol／L）下,在富CO2环境中生长的‘丰香’草莓叶片未出现光合作用下调,富CO2下草莓叶片的净光合速率、最大羧化速率（Vc.max）、最大电子传递速率（Jmax）、碳同化的电子传递速率（Jc）和光化学猝灭系数（qp）等均显著提高;而在中氮（4mmol／L）、低氮（0．4mmol／L）下,富CO2下生长的草莓叶片的上述参数均出现不同程度的下降。富CO2下,无论氮素水平如何,草莓叶片的光呼吸电子传递速率（Jo）均降低高氮草莓叶片的非光化学猝灭系数（qN或NPQ）降低,光抑制降低,而低氮则相反。上述结果说明,氮素供应不足时草莓叶片在富CO2下光合作用出现下调,因此生产上进行CO2施肥时应适度增加氮素的供应。     

Elevated Temperature and CO2 Stimulate Late-Season Photosynthesis But Impair Cold Hardening in Pine

Rising global temperature and CO₂ levels may sustain late-season net photosynthesis of evergreen conifers but could also impair the development of cold hardiness. Our study investigated how elevated temperature, and the combination of elevated temperature with elevated CO₂, affected photosynthetic rates, leaf carbohydrates, freezing tolerance, and proteins involved in photosynthesis and cold hardening in Eastern white pine (Pinus strobus). We designed an experiment where control seedlings were acclimated to long photoperiod (day/night 14/10 h), warm temperature (22°C/15°C), and either ambient (400 μL L⁻¹) or elevated (800 μmol mol⁻¹) CO₂, and then shifted seedlings to growth conditions with short photoperiod (8/16 h) and low temperature/ambient CO₂ (LTAC), elevated temperature/ambient CO₂ (ETAC), or elevated temperature/elevated CO₂ (ETEC). Exposure to LTAC induced down-regulation of photosynthesis, development of sustained nonphotochemical quenching, accumulation of soluble carbohydrates, expression of a 16-kD dehydrin absent under long photoperiod, and increased freezing tolerance. In ETAC seedlings, photosynthesis was not down-regulated, while accumulation of soluble carbohydrates, dehydrin expression, and freezing tolerance were impaired. ETEC seedlings revealed increased photosynthesis and improved water use efficiency but impaired dehydrin expression and freezing tolerance similar to ETAC seedlings. Sixteen-kilodalton dehydrin expression strongly correlated with increases in freezing tolerance, suggesting its involvement in the development of cold hardiness in P. strobus. Our findings suggest that exposure to elevated temperature and CO₂ during autumn can delay down-regulation of photosynthesis and stimulate late-season net photosynthesis in P. strobus seedlings. However, this comes at the cost of impaired freezing tolerance. Elevated temperature and CO₂ also impaired freezing tolerance. However, unless the frequency and timing of extreme low-temperature events changes, this is unlikely to increase risk of freezing damage in P. strobus seedlings.Land surface temperature is increasing, particularly in the northern hemisphere (IPCC, 2014), which is dominated by boreal and temperate forests. At higher latitudes, trees rely on temperature and photoperiod cues to detect changing seasons and to trigger cessation of growth and cold hardening during the autumn (Ensminger et al., 2015). For boreal and temperate evergreen conifers, cold hardening involves changes in carbohydrate metabolism, down-regulation of photosynthesis, accumulation of cryoprotective metabolites, and development of freezing tolerance (Crosatti et al., 2013; Ensminger et al., 2015). These processes minimize freezing damage and enable conifers to endure winter stresses. However, rising temperatures result in asynchronous phasing of temperature and photoperiod characterized by delayed arrival of first frosts (McMahon et al., 2010), which may impact the onset and development of cold hardening during autumn.Short photoperiod induces the cessation of growth in many tree species (Downs and Borthwick, 1956; Heide, 1974; Repo et al., 2000; Böhlenius et al., 2006). As a consequence, carbon demand in sink tissue decreases toward the end of the growing season, and the bulk of photoassimilate is translocated from source tissues to storage tissues (Hansen and Beck, 1994; Oleksyn et al., 2000). In addition, cryoprotective soluble sugars, including sucrose, raffinose, and pinitol, accumulate in leaf tissues to enhance freezing tolerance (Strimbeck et al., 2008; Angelcheva et al., 2014). Thus, by winter, leaf nonstructural carbohydrates are mainly comprised of mono- and oligosaccharides, and only minimal levels of starch remain (Hansen and Beck, 1994; Strimbeck et al., 2008). The concurrent decrease of photoassimilate and demand for metabolites that occur during the cessation of growth also impacts the citric acid cycle that mediates between photosynthesis, respiration, and protein synthesis. The citric acid cycle generates NADH to fuel ATP synthesis via mitochondrial electron transport, as well as amino acid precursors (Shi et al., 2015). In C3 plants, the enzyme phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) converts phosphoenolpyruvate to oxaloacetic acid in order to supplement the flow of metabolites to the citric acid cycle and thus controls the regulation of respiration and photosynthate partitioning (O’Leary et al., 2011).Cessation of growth, low temperature, and presumably short photoperiod decrease the metabolic sink for photoassimilates, resulting in harmful excess light energy (Öquist and Huner, 2003; Ensminger et al., 2006) and increased generation of reactive oxygen species (Adams et al., 2004). During autumn and the development of cold hardiness, conifers reconfigure the photosynthetic apparatus in order to avoid formation of excess light and reactive oxygen species. This involves a decrease in chlorophylls and PSII reaction center core protein D1 (Ottander et al., 1995; Ensminger et al., 2004; Verhoeven et al., 2009), as well as aggregation of light-harvesting complex proteins (Ottander et al., 1995; Busch et al., 2007). Additionally, photoprotective carotenoid pigments accumulate in leaves, especially the xanthophylls, zeaxanthin, and lutein that contribute to nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) via thermal dissipation of excess light energy (Busch et al., 2007; Verhoeven et al., 2009; Demmig-Adams et al., 2012). Prolonged exposure to low temperature induces sustained nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ_S), where zeaxanthin constitutively dissipates excess light energy (Ensminger et al., 2004; Demmig-Adams et al., 2012; Fréchette et al., 2015).In conifers, freezing tolerance is initiated during early autumn in response to decreasing photoperiod (Rostad et al., 2006; Chang et al., 2015) and continues to develop through late autumn in response to the combination of short photoperiod and low temperature (Strimbeck and Schaberg, 2009; Chang et al., 2015). In addition to changes in carbohydrate content, freezing tolerance also involves the expression of specific dehydrins (Close, 1997; Kjellsen et al., 2013). Members of the dehydrin protein family are involved in responses to osmotic, salt, and freezing stress (Close, 1996). Dehydrins have been associated with improved freezing tolerance in many species including spinach (Kaye et al., 1998), strawberry (Houde et al., 2004), cucumber (Yin et al., 2006), peach (Wisniewski et al., 1999), birch (Puhakainen et al., 2004), and spruce (Kjellsen et al., 2013). In angiosperms, a characteristic Lys-rich dehydrin motif known as the K-segment interacts with lipids to facilitate membrane binding (Koag et al., 2003; Eriksson et al., 2011). Several in vitro studies have demonstrated dehydrin functions including prevention of aggregation and unfolding of enzymes (using Vitis riparia; Hughes and Graether, 2011), radical scavenging (using Citrus unshiu; Hara et al., 2004), and suppression of ice crystal formation (using Prunus persica; Wisniewski et al., 1999). To date, dehydrin functions have not been demonstrated in planta.Rising temperatures since the mid-twentieth century have delayed the onset of autumn dormancy and increased length of the growing season in forests across the northern hemisphere (Boisvenue and Running, 2006; Piao et al., 2007; McMahon et al., 2010). Studies have shown that elevated temperatures ranging from +4°C to +20°C above ambient can delay down-regulation of photosynthesis in several evergreen conifers. Consistent findings were apparent among climate-controlled chamber studies exposing Pinus strobus seedlings to a sudden shift in temperature and/or photoperiod (Fréchette et al., 2016), as well as chamber studies exposing Picea abies seedlings to simulated autumn conditions using a gradient of decreasing temperature and photoperiod (Stinziano et al., 2015). Similar findings were also demonstrated in open-top chamber experiments exposing mature Pinus sylvestris to a gradient of decreasing temperature and natural photoperiod (Wang, 1996). Elevated temperature (+4°C above ambient) also impaired cold hardening in Pseudotsuga menziesii seedlings (Guak et al., 1998) and mature P. sylvestris (Repo et al., 1996) exposed to a decreasing gradient of temperature and natural photoperiod using open-top chambers. In contrast, a recent study showed that smaller temperature increments (+1.5°C to +3°C) applied using infrared heaters did not delay down-regulation of photosynthesis or impair freezing tolerance in field-grown P. strobus seedlings that were acclimated to larger diurnal and seasonal temperature variations (Chang et al., 2015). For many tree species, photoperiod determines cessation of growth (Tanino et al., 2010; Petterle et al., 2013), length of the growing season (Bauerle et al., 2012), and development of cold hardiness (Welling et al., 1997; Li et al., 2003; Rostad et al., 2006). However, the effects of climate warming on tree phenology are complex and can be unpredictable due to species- and provenance-specific differences in sensitivity to photoperiod and temperature cues (Körner and Basler, 2010; Basler and Körner, 2012; Basler and Körner, 2014).The effect of elevated CO₂ further increases uncertainties in the response of trees to warmer climate. Similar to warmer temperature, elevated CO₂ may also delay the down-regulation of photosynthesis in evergreens and extend the length of the growing season, as demonstrated in mature P. sylvestris (Wang, 1996). Elevated CO₂ increases carbon assimilation (Curtis and Wang, 1998; Ainsworth and Long, 2005) and biomass production (Ainsworth and Long, 2005) during the growing season. The effects could continue during the autumn if dormancy or growth cessation is delayed, which suggests that elevated CO₂ may increase annual carbon uptake. However, long-term exposure to elevated CO₂ can also down-regulate photosynthesis during the growing season (Ainsworth and Long, 2005). Prior studies that have attempted to determine the impact of a combination of elevated CO₂ and/or temperature on cold hardening in evergreens have largely focused on freezing tolerance, with contrasting results. Open-top chamber experiments showed that a combination of elevated temperature and CO₂ both delayed and impaired freezing tolerance of P. menziesii seedlings (Guak et al., 1998) and evergreen broadleaf Eucalyptus pauciflora seedlings (Loveys et al., 2006) but did not affect freezing tolerance of mature P. sylvestris (Repo et al., 1996). A recent field experiment examining mature trees revealed that Larix decidua, but not Pinus mugo, exhibited enhanced freezing damage following six years of exposure to combined soil warming and elevated CO₂ (Rixen et al., 2012). In contrast, a climate-controlled study showed that exposure to elevated CO₂ advanced the date of bud set and improved freezing tolerance in Picea mariana seedlings (Bigras and Bertrand, 2006). In a second study on similar seedlings conducted by the same authors, exposure of trees to elevated CO₂ also enhanced freezing tolerance but impaired the accumulation of sucrose and raffinose (Bertrand and Bigras, 2006). These previous experiments used experimental conditions where temperature and photoperiod gradually decreased. While this approach aims to mimic natural conditions, it is difficult to distinguish specific responses to either photoperiod or temperature. Because of the contrasting findings from previous studies, we designed an experiment aiming to separate the effects of photoperiod, temperature, and CO₂ on a wide range of parameters that are involved in cold hardening in conifers.Our study aimed to determine (1) how induction and development of the cold hardening process is affected by a shift from long to short photoperiod under warm conditions and (2) how the combination of warm air temperature and elevated CO₂ affects photoperiod-induced cold hardening processes in Eastern white pine (P. strobus). To assess the development of cold hardening, we measured photosynthetic rates, changes in leaf carbohydrates, freezing tolerance, and proteins involved in photosynthesis and cold hardening over 36 d. Assuming that both low temperature and short photoperiod cues are required to induce cold hardening in conifers, we hypothesized that warm temperature and the combination of warm temperature and elevated CO₂ would prevent seedlings growing under autumn photoperiod from down-regulating photosynthesis. We further hypothesized that warm temperature and the combination of warm temperature and elevated CO₂ would impair the development of freezing tolerance, due to a lack of adequate phasing of the low temperature and short photoperiod signals.     

Photosynthesis of Cockspur [Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) Beauv.] at Sites of Naturally Elevated CO2 Concentration

High abundance of cockspur (Echinochloa crus-galli) at the geothermal carbon dioxide spring area in Staveinci indicates that this species is able to grow under widely varying CO₂ concentrations. Living cockspur plants can even be found very close to gas-releasing vents where growth is significantly reduced. Plant height correlated well with CO₂ exposure. The ¹³C value of the CO₂ spring air was –3.9 and ¹³C values of high-, medium-, and low-CO₂ plants were –10.14, –10.44, and –11.95 , respectively. Stomatal response directly followed the prevailing CO₂ concentrations, with the highest reduction of stomatal conductance in high CO₂ concentration grown plants. Analysis of the curves relating net photosynthetic rate to intercellular CO₂ concentration (P _N-C_i curves) revealed higher CO₂ compensation concentration in plants growing at higher CO₂ concentration. This indicates adjustment of respiration and photosynthetic carbon assimilation according to the prevailing CO₂ concentrations during germination and growth. There was no difference in other photosynthetic parameters measured.     

Photosynthesis and Growth of Water Hyacinth under CO(2) Enrichment

Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes [Mart.] Solms) plants were grown in environmental chambers at ambient and enriched CO₂ levels (330 and 600 microliters CO₂ per liter). Daughter plants (ramets) produced in the enriched CO₂ gained 39% greater dry weight than those at ambient CO₂, but the original mother plants did not. The CO₂ enrichment increased the number of leaves per ramet and leaf area index, but did not significantly increase leaf size or the number of ramets formed. Flower production was increased 147%. The elevated CO₂ increased the net photosynthetic rate of the mother plants by 40%, but this was not maintained as the plants acclimated to the higher CO₂ level. After 14 days at the elevated CO₂, leaf resistance increased and transpiration decreased, especially from the adaxial leaf surface. After 4 weeks in elevated as compared to ambient CO₂, ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase activity was 40% less, soluble protein content 49% less, and chlorophyll content 26% less; whereas starch content was 40% greater. Although at a given CO₂ level the enriched CO₂ plants had only half the net photosynthetic rate of their counterparts grown at ambient CO₂, they showed similar internal CO₂ concentrations. This suggested that the decreased supply of CO₂ to the mesophyll, as a result of the increased stomatal resistance, was counterbalanced by a decreased utilization of CO₂. Photorespiration and dark respiration were lower, such that the CO₂ compensation point was not altered. The photosynthetic light and CO₂ saturation points were not greatly changed, nor was the O₂ inhibition of photosynthesis (measured at 330 microliters CO₂ per liter). It appears that with CO₂ enrichment the temporary increase in net photosynthesis produced larger ramets. After acclimation, the greater total ramet leaf area more than compensated for the lower net photosynthetic rate on a unit leaf area basis, and resulted in a sustained improvement in dry weight gain.     

植物光合作用对CO2浓度增高的适应机制

The Effect of Elevated [CO2] on Growth and Photosynthesis of Two Eucalyptus Species Exposed to High Temperatures and Water Deficits

Two species of eucalyptus (Eucalyptus macrorhyncha and Eucalyptus rossii) were grown for 8 weeks in either ambient (350 [mu]L L-1) or elevated (700 [mu]L L-1) CO2 concentrations, either well watered or without water additions, and subjected to a daily, 3-h high-temperature (45[deg]C, maximum) and high-light (1250 [mu]mol photons m-2 s-1, maximum) stress period. Water-stressed seedlings of E. macrorhyncha had higher leaf water potentials when grown in elevated [CO2]. Growth analysis indicated that increased [CO2] may allow eucalyptus species to perform better during conditions of low soil moisture. A down-regulation of photosynthetic capacity was observed for seedlings grown in elevated [CO2] when well watered but not when water stressed. Well-watered seedlings grown in elevated [CO2] had lower quantum efficiencies as measured by chlorophyll fluorescence (the ratio of variable to maximal chlorophyll fluorescence [Fv/Fm]) than seedlings grown in ambient [CO2] during the high-temperature stress period. However, no significant differences in Fv/Fm were observed between CO2 treatments when water was withheld. The reductions in dark-adapted Fv/Fm for plants grown in elevated [CO2] were not well correlated with increased xanthophyll cycle photoprotection. However, reductions in the Fv/Fm were correlated with increased levels of nonstructural carbohydrates. The reduction in quantum efficiencies for plants grown in elevated [CO2] is discussed in the context of feedback inhibition of electron transport associated with starch accumulation and variation in sink strength.     

Temperature Effects on Rice at Elevated CO2 Concentration

The continuing increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration([CO₂]) and projections of possible future increases in globalairtemperatures have stimulated interest in the effects of theseclimate variables on agriculturally important food crops. Thisstudywas conducted to determine the effects of [CO₂] and temperatureon rice (Oryza sativa L., cv. IR–30). Rice plants weregrownseason-long in outdoor, naturally sunlit, controlled-environment,plant growth chambers in temperature regimes ranging from 25/18/21°Cto 37/30/34°C (daytime dry bulb air temperature/night-timedry bulb air temperature/paddy water temperature)and [CO₂] of660 µmol CO₂ mol1 air. An ambient chamber was maintainedat a [CO₂] of 330 µmol mol^–1 and temperature regimesof 28/21/25°C. Carbon dioxide enrichment at 28/21/25°Cincreased both biomass accumulation and tillering and increasedgrain yield by 60%. In the 660 µmol mol^–1 [CO₂]treatment, grain yield decreased from 10.4 to 1.0 Mg ha^–1with increasing temperature from 28/21/25°C to the 37/30/34°Ctemperature treatment. Across this temperature range, the numberof panicles plant^–1 nearly doubled while the number ofseeds panicle^–1 declined sharply. These results indicatethat while future increases in atmospheric [CO₂] are likelyto be beneficial to rice growth and yield, potentially largenegative effects on rice yield are possible if air temperaturesalso rise. Key words: Oryza sativa, CO₂, temperature, growth, yield     

Effect of Elevated CO2 on Photosynthesis and Chlorophyll Fluorescence of Rose Plants Grown at High Temperature and High Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density

Gas exchange and chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence were measured on young mature leaves of rose plants (Rosa hybrida cvs. First Red and Twingo) grown in two near-to-tight greenhouses, one under control ambient CO₂ concentration, AC (355 µmol mol^–1) and one under CO₂ enrichment, EC (700 µmol mol^–1), during four flushes from late June to early November. Supply of water and mineral elements was non-limiting while temperature was allowed to rise freely during daytime. Leaf diffusive conductance was not significantly reduced at EC but net photosynthetic rate increased by more than 100 %. Although the concentration of total non-structural saccharides was substantially higher in the leaves from the greenhouse with EC, _PS2 (quantum efficiency of radiation use) around noon was not significantly reduced at EC indicating that there was no down-regulation of electron transport. Moreover, CO₂ enrichment did not cause any increase in the risk of photo-damage, as estimated by the 1 – q_P parameter. Non-photochemical quenching was even higher in the greenhouse with EC during the two summer flushes, when temperature and photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) were the highest. Hence rose photosynthesis benefits strongly from high concentrations of atmospheric CO₂ at both high and moderate temperatures and PPFD.     

Influence of Elevated CO2 and Temperature on the Photosynthesis and Respiration of White Clover Dependent on N2 Fixation

Single clonal plants of white clover (Trifolium repens L) grownfrom explants in a Perlite rooting medium, and dependent fornitrogen on N₂ fixation in root nodules, were grown for severalweeks in controlled environments which provided two regimesof CO₂, and temperature 23/18 °C day/night temperaturesat 680 µmol mol^–1 CO₂, (C680), and 20/15 °Cday/night temperatures at 340 µmol mol^–1 CO₂ (C340)After 3–4 weeks of growth, when the plants were acclimatedto the environmental regimes, leaf and whole-plant photosynthesisand respiration were measured using conventional infra-red gasanalysis techniques Elevated CO₂ and temperature increased ratesof photosynthesis of young, fully expanded leaves at the growthirradiance by 17–29%, despite decreased stomatal conductancesand transpiration rates Water use efficiency (mol CO₂ mol H₂O^–1)was also significantly increased Plants acclimated to elevatedCO₂, and temperature exhibited rates of leaf photosynthesisvery similar to those of C340 leaves ‘instantaneously’exposed to the C680 regime However, leaves developed in theC680 regime photosynthesised less rapidly than C340 leaves whenboth were exposed to a normal CO₂, and temperature environmentIn measurements where irradiance was varied, the enhancementof photosynthesis in elevated CO₂ at 23 °C increased graduallyfrom approx 10 % at 100 µmol m^–1 s^–1 to >27 % at 1170 µmol m^–2 s^–1 In parallel, wateruse efficiency increased by 20–40 % at 315 µmolm^–2 s^–1 In parallel, water use efficiency increasedby 20–40 % at 315 µmol m^–2 s^–1 In parallel,water use efficiency increased by 20–40 % at 315 µmolm^–2 s^–1 In parallel, water use efficiency increasedby 20–40 % at 315 µmol m^–2 s^–1 to approx100 % at the highest irradiance Elevated CO₂, and temperatureincreased whole-plant photosynthesis by > 40 %, when expressedin terms of shoot surface area or shoot weight No effects ofelevated CO₂ and temperature on rate of tissue respiration,either during growth or measurement, were established for singleleaves or for whole plants Dependence on N₂, fixation in rootnodules appeared to have no detrimental effect on photosyntheticperformance in elevated CO₂, and temperature Trifolium repens, white clover, photosynthesis, respiration, elevated CO₂, elevated temperature, water use efficiency, N₂ fixation     

The Growth and Yield Responses ofFragaria ananassato Elevated CO2and N Supply

Strawberry plants (Fragaria ananassaDuchesne var. Elsanta) weregrown in pots at two concentrations of carbon dioxide (partialpressures of 39 and 56 Pa) and with three rates of nitrogensupply (0.04, 0.4 and 4 mMas nutrient solution) to study theirindividual and interactive effects on plant growth and fruityield. Nitrogen deficiency reduced total dry biomass and relativegrowth rate (RGR), mainly through reductions in leaf area ratio(LAR) and plant N concentration (PNC), although both the netassimilation rate (NAR) and root weight ratio (RWR) increased.Elevated CO₂increased the N productivity (NP) but reduced theLAR. High CO₂increased the fruit yield by 42% at high N supplyand by 17% at low N supply. The CO₂yield enhancement occurredthrough an increase in the flower and fruit number of individualplants. This resulted in an increase in the fruit weight ratio(FWR) of plants at high CO₂. Nitrogen deficiency reduced thefruit yield by about 50% through decreases in fruit size, fruitset and the number of fruits. However, N deficiency increasedthe proportion of total plant dry biomass allocated to fruits.There were no significant interactions between CO₂and N supplyon yield.Copyright 1998 Annals of Botany Company Nitrogen; carbon dioxide; strawberry (Fragaria ananassaDuchesne); fruit yield.     

Interactions of Elevated CO2 Concentration and Drought Stress on Photosynthesis in Eucalyptus Cladocalyx F. Muell

Response of net photosynthetic rate (P _N), stomatal conductance (g _s), intercellular CO₂ concentration (c _i), and photosynthetic efficiency (F_v/F_m) of photosystem 2 (PS2) was assessed in Eucalyptus cladocalyx grown for long duration at 800 (C₈₀₀) or 380 (C₃₈₀) μmol mol^-1 CO₂ concentration under sufficient water supply or under water stress. The well-watered plants at C₈₀₀ showed a 2.2 fold enhancement of P _N without any change in g _s. Under both C₈₀₀ and C₃₈₀, water stress decreased P _N and g _s significantly without any substantial reduction of c _i, suggesting that both stomatal and non-stomatal factors regulated P _N. However, the photosynthetic efficiency of PS2 was not altered. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
