11. Photosynthesis – preliminary results CROPS  Net photosynthetic rate: - Significant decline with increase in daylight ozone (cereals)  A sat (light-saturated rate of net photosynthesis): - Significant decline with increase in daylight ozone - Non-cereals more affected than cereals  V cmax (maximum rate of Rubisco carboxylase activity): - Significant decline with increase in daylight ozone OTHER VEGETATION  No significant effects of ozone on photosynthesis (wide confidence intervals due to lack of data; only 3 papers) 30 th ICP M&M TFM, 7-10 April 2014, Rome
