Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 decreased the impact of drought on barley biomass.
- Intervention effect Drought decreased tissue N and P concentrations (%N and %P) in barley in most cases.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 decreased tissue N and P concentrations (%N and %P) in barley in most cases.
- Observation The effects of drought and elevated CO2 on %N and %P were additive for shoots.
- Intervention effect Root N- and P-uptake rates were strongly decreased by drought.
- Intervention effect Root N- and P-uptake rates were not significantly affected by elevated CO2.
- Intervention effect Drought upregulated NRT1 (NO3 transporter) and AMT1 (NH4 transporter) per unit total root protein, averaged across treatments.
- Intervention effect High CO2 upregulated NRT1 (NO3 transporter) and AMT1 (NH4 transporter) per unit total root protein, averaged across treatments.
- Intervention effect Only drought increased PHT1 (P transporter) concentration.
- Mechanism Despite increased concentrations of nutrient-uptake proteins in roots, nutrient uptake was limited by other factors.
