CO2-Induced Changes in Wheat Grain Composition: Meta-Analysis and Response Functions

CO2-Induced Changes in Wheat Grain Composition: Meta-Analysis and Response Functions

Elevated carbon dioxide (eCO2) stimulates wheat grain yield, but simultaneously reduces protein/nitrogen (N) concentration. Also, other essential nutrients are subject to change. This study is a synthesis of wheat experiments with eCO2, estimating the effects on N, minerals (B, Ca, Cd, Fe, K, Mg, Mn...
