Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 combined with soil warming improved wheat grain yield.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 and soil warming decreased wheat K, Ca and Mg concentrations in leaves, stems, roots and grains.
- Mechanism Lower grain mineral concentration was attributed to reduced mineral uptake, stomatal conductance and xylem sap mineral concentration.
- Recommendation The authors suggest breeding wheat cultivars with greater mineral uptake under reduced xylem flux.
