Data consists of RNA expression, tuber mass, photosynthetic capacity and diurnal CO2 assimilation calculations, potato tuber nutrient content, photorespiratory metabolite analysis and meteorological data to support the increase in yield and thermotolerance observed in potato plants with an introduce photorespiratory bypass. Data was collected between 2019-2024 at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, IL, USA.
