Title | Water Use Efficiency in Plant Growth and Ambient Carbon Dioxide Level |
Creator | van Bavel, C. H. M. |
Description | This report examines the validity and explores the practical implications of the proposition that CO2 enrichment of the leaf environment enhances plant growth and, simultaneously decreases plant water use. A theoretical analysis of the water and carbon dioxide balance of plant leaves was made in the form of a computer program based upon known physiological facts. It predicts significant increases in water use efficiency by plants as CO is enriched, the size of the increase depending upon the... |
