Amine fungicides are widely used as crop protectants. Their success is believed to be related to their ability to inhibit postlanosterol sterol biosynthesis in fungi, in particular sterol-Δ8,Δ7-isomerases and sterol-Δ14-reductases, with a concomitant ...

Ultrafast spectroscopy reveals singlet fission, ionization and excimer formation in perylene film
Singlet exciton fission (SF) is a spin-allowed process whereby two triplet excitons are created from one singlet exciton. This phenomenon can offset UV photon energy losses and enhance the overall efficiency in photovoltaic devices.

Conserved cellular patterning in the mesophyll of rice leaves
The mesophyll cells of grass leaves, such as rice, are traditionally viewed as displaying a relatively uniform pattern, in contrast to the clear distinctions of palisade and spongy layers in typical eudicot leaves. This quantitative analysis of mesophyll

Photosynthesis and the environment [PDF]
Nearly 240 years after Joseph Priestley’s influential experiments involving a mouse, a plant and a bell jar the need and desire to study photosynthesis and the environment has not diminished. In fact, it is well recognized that the relationship between photosynthesis and the environment is key to understanding the health of our planet, in addition to ...

A fundamental limitation of photosynthetic carbon fixation is the availability of CO2. In C4 plants, primary carboxylation occurs in mesophyll cytosol, and little is known about the role of CO2 diffusion in facilitating C4 photosynthesis.

Histone modifications play important roles in regulating the expression of C4 photosynthetic genes. Given that all enzymes required for the C4 photosynthesis pathway are present in C3 plants, it has been hypothesized that this expression regulatory ...
