Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus have evolved different adaptive mechanisms to cope with light and UV stress [PDF]
Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus, which numerically dominate vast oceanic areas, are the two most abundant oxygenic phototrophs on Earth. Although they require solar energy for photosynthesis, excess light and associated high UV radiations can induce ...

Harmonic Generation with Single-Cycle Light Pulses
We study theoretically spatiotemporal pulse dynamics in cubic nonlinear media with instant response, nonresonant absorption and normal group velocity dispersion and reveal new features of harmonic generation when the pulse duration is reduced, including ...

Diel infection of cyanobacteria by cyanophages
Cyanobacteria exhibit biological rhythms as an adaptation to the daily light-dark (diel) cycle. Light is also crucial for bacteriophages (cyanophages) that infect cyanobacteria.

The Bamboo Flowering Cycle Sheds Light on Flowering Diversity
Bamboo is a perennial flowering plant with a distinctive life cycle: many bamboo species remain in the vegetative phase for decades, followed by mass synchronous flowering and subsequent death.

The proton pump rhodopsin (PPR) is widely found in marine bacteria and archaea, where it functions to capture light energy and convert it to ATP. While found in several lineages of dinoflagellates, this gene has not been studied in Prorocentrales species

Light Protection of Cycle Lanes [PDF]
This report reviews the effectiveness of light separation as an alternative to more permanent infrastructure to protect cycle lanes. With more cyclists on the roads than ever, it is important to consider infrastructure options that safeguard cyclists and other road users whilst being cost effective and easily adaptable to cities that are constantly ...

Shedding light on manganese cycling in the early oceans [PDF]
Agreement is often in short supply within the community of researchers asking questions about Earth’s earliest history. One exception, however, is the near-consensus view that oxygen (O2) was mostly absent from the atmosphere and oceans before about 2.4 to 2.3 Ga—the so-called Great Oxidation Event (GOE).

Light‐Controlled Cell‐Cycle Arrest and Apoptosis [PDF]
AbstractCell‐cycle interference by small molecules has widely been used to study fundamental biological mechanisms and to treat a great variety of diseases, most notably cancer. However, at present only limited possibilities exist for spatio‐temporal control of the cell cycle. Here we report on a photocaging strategy to reversibly arrest the cell cycle
