Abstract excerpt
Interactions between the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita and three isogenic tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) genotypes were examined when plants were grown under ambient (370 ppm) and elevated (750 ppm) CO2. We tested the hypothesis that, defence-recessive genotypes tend to allocate 'extra' carbon (relative to nitrogen) to growth under elevated CO2, whereas defence-dominated genotypes allocate extra...
