Abstract

Abstract Wheat production will be impacted by increasing concentration of atmospheric CO 2 [ CO 2 ], which is expected to rise from about 400 μmol mol −1 in 2015 to 550 μmol mol −1 by 2050. Changes to plant physiology and crop responses from elevated [ CO 2 ] (e[ CO 2 ]) are well documented for some...
