The Warburg effect (sometimes confused with the Warburg hypothesis) is the inhibition of carbon dioxide fixation, and subsequently photosynthesis, by high oxygen concentrations.

The effect is named for Otto Heinrich Warburg. The oxygenase activity of RuBisCO, which initiates the process of photorespiration, largely accounts for the Warburg effect.
