520 |a Geum urbanum and G. rivale are a sympatric interfertile pair of species with contrasting distributions. Geum rivale occurs at higher altitudes and more northerly latitudes than G. urbanum. As part of a study to determine the factors responsible for this difference in distribution, a comparison of the carbon economy of the two species was made. The light and temperature dependence of photosynthesis was assessed for plants of both species grown in contrasting light and temperature regimes. Acclimation to the prevailing environmental conditions was more pronounced in G. urbanum. Amongst populations of the two species originating from different altitudes the temperature optimum for photosynthesis was similar. When grown at 25/16 °C, higher rates of respiration were measured he roots of G. rivale at all temperatures, when pretreated at 8/5 °C there was a smaller increase in the rate of respiration in the roots of G. rivale. It is proposed that these differences in root respiration account for observed higher root growth rates at low temperatures in G. rivale. It is concluded that whilst carbon assimilation is not a critical factor determining the upper altitudinal limit of G. urbanum, the pattern of carbon utilization may be important. The greater phenotypic plasticity observed in G. urbanum, may be of value for survival in the herb layer of deciduous woodland where it is most commonly found
