Description

This book focuses on the interactive effects of environmental stresses on plant and ecosystem functions, especially with respect to changes in the abundance of carbon dioxide. The interaction of stresses with elevated carbon dioxide is presented from the cellular through the whole plant ecosystem level. The book not only carefully considers the responses of the above-ground portion of the plant, but also emphasizes the critical role of below-ground (rhizosphere) components (e.g., roots, microbes, soil) in determining the nature and magnitude of these interactions.
