Alterations in Soybean Leaf Development and Photosynthesis in a CO(2)-Enriched Atmosphere

A study characterized changes in the canopy photosynthetic leaf area of developing soybean exposed to a carbon dioxide enriched atmosphere. Results indicate that more rapid rates of leaf development under carbon dioxide enrichment resulted from increased photosynthetic rates and that both direct and...

Description
Summary:A study characterized changes in the canopy photosynthetic leaf area of developing soybean exposed to a carbon dioxide enriched atmosphere. Results indicate that more rapid rates of leaf development under carbon dioxide enrichment resulted from increased photosynthetic rates and that both direct and indirect effects were involved.
