Elevated CO2 enhanced water use efficiency of wheat to progressive drought stress but not on maize
Global rising atmospheric CO2 concentration ([CO2]) and drought stress exert profound influences on crop growth and yield. The objective of the present study was to investigate the responses of leaf gas exchange and plant water use efficiency (WUE) of wheat (C3) and maize (C4) plants to progressive...
