This study shows that elevated CO2 does not reduce stomatal conductance or transpiration during high-VPD heatwaves in wheat, leading to increased water use.

The paper identifies genetic precursors for C4 photosynthesis in grasses and shows that gene turnover facilitated its repeated evolution in the PACMAD lineage.

This study identifies genomic regions associated with C4 photosynthesis traits in Alloteropsis semialata using GWAS, highlighting key regulators of the C4 cycle and leaf anatomy.
