Adapting C4 photosynthesis to atmospheric change and increasing productivity by elevating Rubisco content in Sorghum and Sugarcane

Coralie E. Salesse‐Smith, Noga Adar, Baskaran Kannan, Thaibinhduong Nguyen, Wei Wei, Ming Guo, Zhengxiang Ge, Fredy Altpeter, Tom Elmo Clemente, Stephen P. Long

This paper shows that increasing Rubisco content in sorghum and sugarcane through genetic modification improves photosynthetic efficiency and productivity, with field and greenhouse trials showing biomass increases of 15.5% and 37-81% respectively.
