Compared with C3 plants, C4 plants possess a mechanism to concentrate CO2 around the ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase in chloroplasts of bundle sheath cells so that the carboxylation reaction work at a much more efficient rate, thereby substantially eliminate the oxygenation reaction and the resulting photorespiration. It is observed that C4 photosynthesis is more efficient than C3...

It is obvious that current rate of increase in crop yields is not sufficient to solve the problem of food security worldwide, especially in Asia, where at least 50 % increase in rice yield is needed to...
