Research Progress in Improving Photosynthetic Efficiency
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 Photosynthesis is the largest mass- and energy-conversion process on Earth, and it is the material basis for almost all biological activities. The efficiency of converting absorbed light energy into energy substances during photosynthesis is very low compared to theoretical values.

Structure and Efficiency in Bacterial Photosynthetic Light Harvesting [PDF]
The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 2019 Photosynthetic organisms use networks of chromophores to absorb sunlight and deliver the energy to reaction centres, where charge separation triggers a cascade of chemical steps to store the energy. We present a detailed model of the light-harvesting complexes in purple bacteria, including explicit interaction with sunlight; energy loss through ...

PHYSIOLOGICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL STRATEGIES FOR CO2 FIXATION IN PLANTS
Agricultura, 2019 The photosynthetic carbon assimilation pathways are not the same for all plants; they show great inventiveness through their adaptations to low CO2 concentrations, high O2, water stress, but also to different temperatures in the environments in which ...
