Barriers including cell walls, membranes, liquid phases and the anatomy and orientation of the cells and their subcellular organelles impose resistances on carbon dioxide diffusion within leaves. Recent research has helped generate a comprehensive understanding of these resistances and we review efforts to alter and improve mesophyll conductance in plants through manipulation of the structure and composition of these barriers. 2023-02-27T12:21:49Z 2023-02-27T12:21:49Z 2023 chapter ONIX_20230227_9781801464697_39 9781801464697 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/61529 eng Burleigh Dodds Series in Agricultural Science application/pdf Attribution 4.0 International 9781801464697_web.pdf Burleigh Dodds Science Publishing Burleigh Dodds Science Publishing 10.19103/AS.2022.0119.10 10.19103/AS.2022.0119.10 9f8f6c63-e2ae-40b8-8aac-316abb377d6a Australian National University 9781801464697 Burleigh Dodds Science Publishing 28 Cambridge [...] open access
