TL;DR: The authors systematically tested 30 different wheat crop models of the Agricultural Model Intercomparison and Improvement Project against field experiments in which growing season mean temperatures ranged from 15 degrees C to 32 degrees C, including experiments with artificial heating.

TL;DR: It is reported that C3 grains and legumes have lower concentrations of zinc and iron when grown under field conditions at the elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration predicted for the middle of this century.

TL;DR: This paper showed that grid-based and point-based simulations and statistical regressions, without deliberate adaptation or CO 2 fertilization effects, produce similar estimates of temperature impact on wheat yields at global and national scales.

TL;DR: A set of new temperature response functions are derived that when substituted in four wheat models reduced the error in grain yield simulations across seven global sites with different temperature regimes, leading to higher skill of crop yield projections.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of free air CO2 enrichment (FACE) on the growth and development of field-grown grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) at ample (wet) and limiting (dry) levels of irrigation water at Maricopa, AZ, USA.
