Not just CO2: Rising temperatures also alter photosynthesis in a changing climate – University of Illinois News
A new review explores how higher temperatures influence plant growth and viability despite the higher concentrations of atmospheric CO2.
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Agricultural scientists who study climate change often focus on how increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide levels will affect crop yields. But rising temperatures are likely to complicate the picture, researchers report in a new review of the topic.
Published in the Journal of Experimental Botany, the review explores how higher temperatures influence plant growth and viability despite the greater availability of atmospheric CO2, a key component of photosynthesis. Excessive heat…
