Photosynthetic responses to understory shade and elevated carbon dioxide concentration in four northern hardwood tree species.

Photosynthetic responses to understory shade and elevated carbon dioxide concentration in four northern hardwood tree species.

Seedling responses to elevated atmospheric CO(2) concentration ([CO(2)]) and solar irradiance were measured over two growing seasons in shade-tolerant Acer saccharum Marsh. and Fagus grandifolia J.F. Ehrh. and shade-intolerant Prunus serotina, a J.F. Ehrh. and Betula papyrifera Marsh. Seedlings were...
