The three-part experiment performed by Mizokami et al. to analyze the relationship of mesophyll conductance and change in the CO2 levels enabled them to explain the characteristic of mesophyll conductance in plants (2017). As said in the beginning, there are many studies done for the stomatal conductance, but not many for mesophyll conductance. This report has given four key discoveries to understand about the mesophyll conductance behavior. Starting on 1) decrease in mesophyll conductance to increase in CO2 is independent from the stomatal conductance. 2) The different reactions observed in mesophyll conductance for CO2 levels, and ABA application concluded how mesophyll conductance uses different mechanisms to decrease depending on the external factor. 3) Mesophyll conductance reacts better in 1% O2 than 21% O2.  4) Mesophyll conductance do not react spontaneously, rather gradually to the external environment (Mizokami et al., 2017). There were experimental error such as overestimation in the intercellular concentration, how aquaporins behave, and nitrogen balance. So, to have a better result Mizokami concludes how these factors should be considered in further studies (Mizokami et al., 2017).

In the first sentence, I would use the researchers first and last name, you would use such abbreviation when citing the paper constructing your bibliography. "This report has given four key discoveries to understand about the mesophyll conductance behavior" I would say "This report presents four key discoveries to understand about this concept of mesophyll conductance behavior". I would also change the beginning of the following sentence and use "beginning with a decrease in..." instead of listing out the steps in numerical form, integration would improve the flow of the paragraph. 

Grammatial issues (minor)
:  "performed by Mizokami et al. to analyzed the relationship..."

Also be careful not to use colloquial langauge in your writing
 "starting on..."
