Carbon dioxide concentration is likely to increase by 2 2.5 fold by the end of 21st century from its current level of 400 ppm due to anthropogenic activities mediated climate change. As yam is an important food and nutrition security crop, it is of paramount importance to assess the effect of climate change on the physiological processes especially photosynthetic efficiency to identify the climate-smart varieties to meet the future food demand. The aim of this experiment was to assess the net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, intercellular CO2, transpiration and physiological water use efficiency of seven yam varieties subjected to 400 ppm (ambient), 600, 800 and 1000 ppm (elevated carbon dioxide concentration). All the parameters were found significant at P Not Available |
