Abstract

A series of field experiments were carried out to assess the impact of two important global change factors (increased temperature and elevated atmospheric CO2) on the germination and growth of three C4 grass species found in New Zealand pastures: Digitaria sanguinalis (summer grass), Paspalum dilatatum (paspalum) and Pennisetum clandestinum (kikuyu).
