Additional carbohydrate supply resulting from enhanced photosynthesis under predicted future elevated CO2 is likely to increase symbiotic nitrogen fixation in legumes. Butterly et al. use free-air CO2 enrichment (FACE)...

Phosphorus and elevated CO2 enhance drought tolerance
Benefits to crop productivity arising from increasing CO2 fertilization may be offset by detrimental effects of global climate change, such as an increasing frequency of drought. Phosphorus ( P ) nutrition plays an...
CO2 stimulation of photosynthesis in Liquidambar styraciflua is not sustained during a 12-year field experiment
Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have increased by ~ 25% over the last 50 years. While more carbon dioxide can initially stimulate plant photosynthesis, in a new study published in AoB PLANTS, Warren et al. found that...

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.
