The Interactive Effect of Elevated CO<sub>2</sub> and Herbivores on the Nitrogen-Fixing Plant <i>Alnus incana</i> ssp. <i>rugosa</i>
Many studies have found that future predicted CO<sub>2</sub> levels can increase plant mass but dilute N content in leaves, impacting antiherbivore compounds. Nitrogen-fixing plants may balance their leaf C:N ratio under elevated CO<sub>2</sub>, counteracting this dilution ef...
