The effect of elevated carbon dioxide and atmospheric nitrogen deposition on constitutive and inducibilty of phenolics

Project Abstract:
The purpose of this experiment is to measure the effect of elevated carbon dioxide levels and atmospheric nitrogen deposition on the constitutive levels and inducibilty of plant defenses. These levels will reflect the levels predicted by the A1fi scenario, the levels expected by the year 2100.
Investigator(s):
Jennifer Douglas
Status of Research Project:
Complete (archive)
Years Active:
2014
Research sites:
Elevated Carbon Dioxide Chamber Array
Methods:
Plants will be placed into elevated carbon dioxide chambers. They will grow for approximately for 4 to 5 weeks. Then the leaves grown under the elevated CO2 and nitrogen deposition solution will be tested for levels of phenolics.
Funding agency:
NSF-REU
