Description
Highlights:
- Under a physiological watering–wetting cycle, C4 assimilation was limited by metabolic factors.
- These non-stomatal limitations were not alleviated by increasing growth [CO2]a.
- In C3 trees the assimilation was limited by stomatal factors.
- These stomatal limitations decreased substantially with increasing growth [CO2] a.
- Rising [CO2]a will reduce the competitiveness of C4 grasses to impinge on savanna vegetation.
