eLife, 2021 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.

Constraints on Aquatic Photosynthesis for Terrestrial Planets Around Other Stars [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, Vol. 889, L15 (2020), 2019 Aquatic photosynthesis plays a major role in carbon fixation and O$_2$ production on Earth. In this Letter, we analyze the prospects for oxygenic photosynthesis in aquatic environments on modern Earth-analogs around F-, G-, K- and M-type stars. Our analysis takes into account the spectral type of the host star, attenuation of light by aquatic organisms,

Does Long-Term Elevation of CO2 Concentration Increase Photosynthesis in Forest Floor Vegetation? (Indiana Strawberry in a Maryland Forest). [PDF]
, 1997 As the partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2) in the atmosphere rises, photorespiratory loss of carbon in C3 photosynthesis will diminish and the net efficiency of light-limited photosynthetic carbon uptake should rise.

Perturbations to aquatic photosynthesis due to high-energy cosmic ray induced muon flux in the extragalactic shock model [PDF]
International Journal of Astrobiology, Vol. 12, issue 04, pp.
326-330 (2013), 2013 We modify a mathematical model of photosynthesis to quantify the perturbations that high energy muons could make on aquatic primary productivity. Then we apply this in the context of the extragalactic shock model, according to which Earth receives an enhanced dose of high-energy cosmic rays when it is at the galactic north.

Models of Photosynthesis [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2001 Our model of photosynthesis (8) published some 20 years ago in Planta has had an impact and seen application that far exceeded our expectations. Perhaps it is useful to reflect on what this model did and why we published it.

Hydrogen Sulfide: A Key Role in Autophagy Regulation from Plants to Mammalians
Antioxidants, 2022 Autophagy is a degradative conserved process in eukaryotes to recycle unwanted cellular protein aggregates and damaged organelles. Autophagy plays an important role under normal physiological conditions in multiple biological processes, but it is induced

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 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 ...

A direct coupled electrochemical system for capture and conversion of CO2 from oceanwater
Nature Communications, 2020 Isolating CO2 to use in electrochemical CO2 reduction systems is an ongoing issue. Here, the authors present a proof-of-concept integrated system combining a bipolar membrane electrodialysis cell with a vapor-fed CO2 reduction cell for capture and ...
