- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 raised cucumber yield by 106% in high N.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 increased biomass allocation from stems and leaves to fruits.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 decreased source-leaf fructose and glucose concentrations.
- Intervention effect Super-elevated CO2 reduced carbon allocation to fruits.
- Intervention effect Super-elevated CO2 raised yield by 71%.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 raised fruit fructose and glucose concentrations.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 maintained fruit dietary fiber, phosphorus, and potassium concentrations.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 maintained fruit calcium, magnesium, and sulfur concentrations.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 maintained fruit manganese, copper, and molybdenum concentrations.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 maintained fruit sodium concentration.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 lowered fruit nitrate, protein, and iron concentrations.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 lowered fruit zinc concentration.
- Intervention effect Super-elevated CO2 improved some fruit quality measures under low N relative to elevated CO2.
- Mechanism The authors attribute elevated-CO2 yield gain mainly to carbon allocation from source leaves to fruits.
