Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Leaves grown at 700 μmol mol −1 CO2 had slightly greater photosynthetic capacity, about 10% higher on average, than those at ambient CO2.
- Intervention effect Elevated CO2 gave no differences in carboxylation efficiency or apparent quantum yield in winter wheat leaves.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen deficiency decreased the contents of protein, Rubisco and chlorophyll in winter wheat leaves.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen deficiency decreased photosynthetic capacity and carboxylation efficiency in winter wheat leaves.
- Intervention effect An increase in temperature reduced protein, chlorophyll and Rubisco contents in winter wheat leaves.
- Intervention effect An increase in temperature shortened the effective life of the leaves of winter wheat, reducing the duration of high photosynthetic capacity.
- Observation Nitrogen supply and temperature did not interact with elevated CO2 in their effects on winter wheat photosynthetic characteristics.
