Notes:
Summary This experiment was conducted in a greenhouse to study the influence of soil CO2 differential treatments on plant response, concentrations of nutrients in soils and plants, and total nutrients per plant (Citrus sinensis var. Bessie). Higher levels of soil CO2, applied to the roots, significantly increased the amount of dry weight per seedling, the height of seedling, and decreased the concentrations of N, P, Ca, Mg, and Mn in the tops. The dry weight of roots supplied with high soil CO2 was decreased, while the concentrations of Mg and Mn were increased. Concentrations of N, P, K, and B in the roots were also reduced due to high level of soil CO2. Only total K and Mg per plant were increased with an increased soil CO2 supply. No significant interactions were found between the soil CO2 treatments and years of experiment.
