Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Soil water deficit decreased aboveground dry matter, leaf area and specific leaf area in all barley and tomato genotypes.
- Intervention effect Soil water deficit enhanced water use efficiency in all genotypes.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 increased aboveground dry matter and leaf area in tomato genotypes.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 reduced specific leaf area and leaf nitrogen concentration in wild type plants but not ABA-deficient mutants.
- Mechanism The authors concluded endogenous ABA level modulates water and nitrogen use efficiency responses to elevated CO2.
