Root Damage by Insects Reverses the Effects of Elevated Atmospheric CO2 on Eucalypt Seedlings
Predicted increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) are widely anticipated to increase biomass accumulation by accelerating rates of photosynthesis in many plant taxa. Little, however, is known about how soil-borne plant antagonists might modify the effects of elevated CO2 (eCO2), with root-feeding insects being particularly understudied. Root damage by insects often reduces rates of photos...
متن کاملElevated atmospheric CO2: a nurse plant substitute for oak seedlings establishing in old fields
It has been hypothesized that elevated levels of atmospheric CO2 (eCO2) may facilitate the encroachment of woody plants into grasslands by reducing water stress. In eastcentral Minnesota, sandy soils frequently create drought conditions for plants, and water limitation inhibits the establishment of oaks into old fields situated on these soils. Some have argued that eCO2 should slow secondary su...

متن کاملGrowth response and acclimation of CO2 exchange characteristics to elevated temperatures in tropical tree seedlings
Predictions of how tropical forests will respond to future climate change are constrained by the paucity of data on the performance of tropical species under elevated growth temperatures. In particular, little is known about the potential of tropical species to acclimate physiologically to future increases in temperature. Seedlings of 10 neo-tropical tree species from different functional group...
متن کاملElevated atmospheric CO2 concentration changes ectomycorrhizal
ferent species of fungi having very different physiologies and morphologies that, in turn, confer a range of different benefits to the host plant. To test the hypothesis that elevated CO2 leads to changes in the assemblage of ectomycorrhizae associated with trees, we examined the number and frequency of ectomycorrhizal morphotypes colonizing roots of Betula papyrifera Marsh. saplings grown at a...
