Conversion of Chlorophyll b to Chlorophyll a via 7-Hydroxymethyl Chlorophyll [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1996
Chlorophyll b is synthesized from chlorophyll a by the oxidation of the methyl group on the ring B of the tetrapyrrole ring to the formyl group. Previously, we reported that chlorophyllide b could be converted to chlorophyll a in isolated cucumber etioplasts indicating the conversion of chlorophyll b to chlorophyll a.

Underwater optical wireless communications : depth dependent variations in attenuation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Depth variations in the attenuation coefficient for light in the ocean were calculated using a one-parameter model based on the chlorophyll-a concentration Cc and experimentally-determined Gaussian chlorophyll-depth profiles.

REACTIVITY OF CHLOROPHYLL a/b-PROTEINS AND MICELLAR TRITON X-100 COMPLEXES OF CHLOROPHYLLS a OR b WITH BOROHYDRIDE [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
The reaction of several plant chlorophyll-protein complexes with NaBH4 has been studied by absorption spectroscopy. In all the complexes studied, chlorophyll b is more reactive than Chi a, due to preferential reaction of its formyl substituent at C-7 ...

The derivation of the formyl-group oxygen of chlorophyll b in higher plants from molecular oxygen. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The mechanism of formation of the formyl group of chlorophyll b has long been obscure but, in this paper, the origin of the 7-formyl-group oxygen of chlorophyll b in higher plants was determined by greening etiolated maize leaves, excised from dark-grown

Average seasonal changes in chlorophyll a in Icelandic waters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The standard algorithms used to derive sea surface chlorophyll a concentration from remotely sensed ocean colour data are based almost entirely on the measurements of surface water samples collected in open sea (case 1) waters which cover ~60% of the ...

Kinetics of drying of basil leaves (Ocimum basilicum L.) in the infrared Cinética de secagem de folhas de manjericão (Ocimum basilicum L.) via infravermelho

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2012
The objective of this paper was to model the drying curves of the leaves of basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) in the infrared at temperatures of 50, 60, 70 and 80 ºC and to evaluate the influence of drying temperature on the color of dried leaves.

Interplay between carotenoids, abscisic acid and jasmonate guides the compatible rice-Meloidogyne graminicola interaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this study, we have characterized the role of carotenoids and chlorophyll in the compatible interaction between the sedentary root knot nematode (RKN) Meloidogyne graminicola and the monocot model plant rice (Oryza sativa). Previous transcriptome data

The moss Bryum argenteum var. muticum Brid. is well adapted to cope with high light in continental Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The net photosynthetic rate (NP), chlorophyll fluorescence, carotenoid content and chlorophyll content of the cosmopolitan moss Bryum argenteum were measured in the field at Botany Bay, southern Victoria Land, continental Antarctica (77°S).

Proton-Electron Hyperfine Coupling Constants of the Chlorophyll a Cation Radical by ENDOR Spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
In this paper we describe the assignment of the major coupling constants in monomer chlorophyll a cation free radical by ENDOR spectroscopy. To facilitate chemical manipulation methylpyrochlorophyllide a has been used as a stand-in, and a suite of six ...
