The paper integrates carbon utilization and transport processes into a crop growth model to predict soybean carbon allocation behavior under varying conditions.

The paper identifies common variants of the Farquhar-von-Caemmerer-Berry model that can introduce errors in photosynthetic parameter estimation, particularly the 'min-A variant' and omission of triose phosphate utilization thresholds.

This study increases mesophyll conductance in tobacco by modifying cell wall porosity and thickness, resulting in higher field photosynthesis.
