- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 enhanced wheat photosynthesis.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 enhanced wheat stomatal resistance.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 enhanced wheat water use efficiency.
- Intervention effect Doubled CO2 significantly increased CAT, POD and SOD activities.
- Mechanism The increase in CAT, POD and SOD was interpreted as enhancing antioxidative defence and drought tolerance.
