Photoautotrophic organisms, the major agent of inorganic carbon fixation into biomass,
convert light energy into chemical energy. The first step of photosynthesis consists of the …

Photosynthetic fluorescence emission spectra measurement at the temperature of 77 K (–
196° C) is an often-used technique in photosynthesis research. At low temperature …

In plants, the photosynthetic machinery photosystem II (PSII) consists of a core complex
associated with variable numbers of light-harvesting complexes II (LHCIIs). The …

The plant light‐harvesting complex of photosystem II (LHC‐II) collects and transmits solar
energy for photosynthesis in chloroplast membranes and has essential roles in regulation of …

In this work we analyzed the photosynthetic apparatus in Arabidopsis thaliana plants
acclimated to different light intensity and temperature conditions. Plants showed the ability to …

The precise determination of photosynthetic pigment content in green organisms,
chlorophylls (Chls) and carotenoids (Cars), is important to investigate many photosynthetic …

The local S0→ S1 transition energies (site energies) and corresponding excitonic couplings
of chlorophyll a (Chl a) and b (Chl b) pigments bound to trimeric, major light-harvesting …

The chlorophyll a/b light-harvesting complex of photosystem II (LHC-II) collects most of the
solar energy in the biosphere. LHC-II is the prototype of a highly conserved family of …

In photosynthesis, light is harvested and its energy is used to produce the various biological
components that support nearly all life on earth. It is oxygenic photosynthesis that led to the …

Photosynthesis is a fundamental biological process involving the conversion of solar energy
into chemical energy. The initial photochemical and photophysical events of photosynthesis …
