We show that one-third of the variation in leaf dark respiration (Rdark ) of wheat is under genetic control—creating an opportunity to use Rdark as a novel

Respiration is an essential link between assimilation of carbon and energy in photosynthesis and subsequent growth and yield of all crops. It provides…

Current estimates of temperature effects on plants mostly rely on air temperature, although it can significantly deviate from leaf temperature (Tleaf). To address this, some studies have used cano...

AbstractBackground and Scope. Plant functional traits are the result of natural selection to optimize carbon gain, leading to a broad spectrum of traits ac

Interactions between carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles in terrestrial ecosystems are simulated in advanced vegetation models, yet methodologies vary widely, leading to divergent simulations of past ...

Increasing heatwaves are threatening forest ecosystems globally. Leaf thermal regulation and tolerance are important for plant survival during heat...
