Abstract
The influence of increasing atmospheric CO2 on shoot growth, leaf nitr ogen and phosphorus concentrations and carbohydrate composition was in vestigated in cotton and wheat. Shoot dry weight of both species was g enerally higher at elevated CO2, especially at high rates of available soil N and P. Critical leaf N concentration was reduced but critical P concentration was increased in both species at high CO2.
