| dc.description.abstract | This study was conducted to determine the effects of anticipated future level of CO2 on growth and dry matter partitioning of mungbean (Vigna radiata). Plants were grown from seedlings to maturity inside the open top chamber under amhient CO2 (350±25 µ L L-1 ) and elevated CO2 (600±50 µ L L-1 ) at Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi (India). Plants were harvested at 20, 35 and 50 days after germination. Mungbean plants grown under elevated CO2 concentration resulted in greater photosynthetic rate on a leaflet area basis and no acclimation in photosynthesis was recorded due to high CO2, Plants grown under CO2 enrichment were taller and attained greater leaf area along with more dry matter than ambient CO2 grown plants at all growth stages. Response to high CO2 depends upon the growth stage of the plant and it was more at early growth stages compared to maturity stages. The high CO2 grown mungbean plants also exhibited increased root growth along with stem and leaves. There was a substantial increase in pod number and seed number/plant under elevated CO2 conditions. The increase in dry matter and growth of root, stem and leaves proved that CO2 enrichment of the atmosphere can stimulate photosynthetic rate which can ultimately lead to an increase in dry matter and growth. | en_US |
