Effect of Elevated CO 2 and Nitrogen Nutrition on Photosynthesis, Growth and Carbon‐Nitrogen Balance in Brassica juncea

Effect of Elevated CO 2 and Nitrogen Nutrition on Photosynthesis, Growth and Carbon‐Nitrogen... The response of Brassica juncea var. Bio‐183‐92 to elevated CO2 under increased nitrogen treatment was studied. There was an interactive effect of CO2 and nitrogen nutrition, indicating that, on the addition of more nitrogen, the plants sustained the positive effect of CO2 enrichment by utilizing additional carbohydrates for the development of new sinks. Excess carbohydrate enables plants to be flexible and responsive to additional nitrogen application to sustain the CO2 enrichment effect. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science Wiley

Abstract

The response of Brassica juncea var. Bio‐183‐92 to elevated CO2 under increased nitrogen treatment was studied. There was an interactive effect of CO2 and nitrogen nutrition, indicating that, on the addition of more nitrogen, the plants sustained the positive effect of CO2 enrichment by utilizing additional carbohydrates for the development of new sinks. Excess carbohydrate enables plants to be flexible and responsive to additional nitrogen application to sustain the CO2 enrichment effect.
