Will heather be lucky heather as carbon dioxide concentrations rise?
A rise in carbon dioxide could affect production of plant defences in unexpected ways.

Savanna tree and C4 grass acclimation responses across low-to-high CO2
By the year 2100, atmospheric CO2 concentration ([CO2]a) could reach 800 ppm, having risen from ~200 ppm since the Neogene, beginning ~24 Myr ago. Changing [CO2]a affects plant carbon–water balance, with implications...

Warming and elevated CO2 alter the suberin chemistry in roots
The decomposability of fine roots and their potential to contribute to soil carbon (C) is partly regulated by their tissue chemical composition. In a recent Editor’s Choice article published in AoB PLANTS, Suseela et al...

Interactive effects of [CO2] and water availability on maritime pine
Evidence from this study indicates that elevated [CO2] not only can aggravate the effects of water deficit on photosynthetic performance and growth of maritime pine but also it can attenuate genotypic differences in...

Mitigating effects of well-timed rainfall on plant mortality
Global warming accelerates plant water use, increasing plant susceptibility to drought death. From this, it can be hypothesised that higher CO2 concentrations slow plant water use, and should offset the warming effects...
Tropical conifer response to altered CO2 concentration
Conifers dominated the lowland tropics 100 million years ago, but have now been largely replaced by angiosperms, coincident with a large decline in atmospheric CO2. Using greenhouse treatments of pre-industrial...
Competition effects on plastic and genotypic responses to [CO2]
Plant–plant interactions could mediate vegetation responses to rising atmospheric CO2 concentration ([CO2]), because some plants benefit more from [CO2] elevation than others. Van Loon et al. investigated how changes in...
Plant phosphorus nutrition under elevated CO2 (Review)
Increasing attention is being focused on the influence of rapid increases in atmospheric CO2 concentration on nutrient cycling in ecosystems. An understanding of how elevated CO2 affects plant utilization and...
Plants and climate change: complexities and surprises (review)
Camille Parmesan and Mick E. Hanley introduce the special issue with a review of some of the surprises so far with plant responses to anthropogenic climate change. This issue comes from a sponsored symposium session...
Responses of beech and spruce foliage to elevated carbon dioxide, increased nitrogen deposition and soil type
Although enhanced carbon fixation by forest trees may contribute significantly to mitigating an increase in atmospheric CO2, capacities for this fixation vary greatly among different tree species and locations. In a...

Leaf hydraulic conductance at elevated [CO2] and temperature
Leaf hydraulic properties are strongly linked with transpiration and photosynthesis in many species, but it is not known if gas exchange and hydraulics will have co-ordinated responses to climate change. Locke et al...
Improving crop models in the face of climate change (Viewpoint)
Crop models need improving for an accurate assessment of the impacts of climate change on crop productivity.
Nitrogen and water use efficiencies under elevated CO2
Water and nitrogen are two limiting resources for biomass production of terrestrial vegetation. Palmroth et al. employ optimization theory to quantify interactions between marginal water and nitrogen resource use...
