We investigated isoprene (ISO) emission and gas exchange in leaves from different positions along the vertical canopy profile of poplar saplings (Populus euramericana cv. ‘74/76’). For a growing season, plants were subjected to four N treatments, control (NC, no N addition), low N (LN, 50 kg N ha⁻¹year⁻¹), middle N (MN, 100 kg N ha⁻¹year⁻¹), high N (HN, 200 kg N ha⁻¹year⁻¹) and three O₃ treatments (CF, charcoal-filtered ambient air; NF, non-filtered ambient air; NF + O₃, NF + 40 ppb O₃). Our results showed the effects of O₃ and/or N on standardized ISO rate (ISOᵣₐₜₑ) and photosynthetic parameters differed along with the leaf position, with larger negative effects of O₃ and positive effects of N on ISOᵣₐₜₑ and photosynthetic parameters in the older leaves. Expanded young leaves were insensitive to both treatments even at very high O₃ concentration (67 ppb as 10-h average) and HN treatment. Significant O₃ × N interactions were only found in middle and lower leaves, where ISOᵣₐₜₑ declined by O₃ just when N was limited (NC and LN). With increasing light-saturated photosynthesis and chlorophyll content, ISOᵣₐₜₑ was reduced in the upper leaves but on the contrary increased in middle and lower leaves. The responses of ISOᵣₐₜₑ to AOT40 (accumulated exposure to hourly O₃ concentrations > 40 ppb) and PODY (accumulative stomatal uptake of O₃ > Y nmol O₃ m⁻² PLA s⁻¹) were not significant in upper leaves, but ISOᵣₐₜₑ significantly decreased with increasing AOT40 or PODY under limited N supply in middle leaves but at all N levels in lower leaves. Overall, ISOᵣₐₜₑ changed along the vertical canopy profile in response to combined O₃ and N exposure, a behavior that should be incorporated into multi-layer canopy models. Our results are relevant for modelling regional isoprene emissions under current and future O₃ pollution and N deposition scenarios.
