Respiration of woody shoots under elevated CO2 and temperature
The respiration rates of shoots of Scots pine growing in controlled-environment conditions are shown by Zha et al. (pp. 89-96) to vary diurnally and seasonally with temperature, to be reduced by elevated CO2, but to be increased by elevated temperature. The changes by environmental treatments are mainly attributed to the changes in maintenance component of respiration.
