Plants harness quantum physics to capture solar energy with near-perfect efficiency. Scientists are now exploring how to ...

It is a common gut bacteria that never normally sees the light of day, but now Chinese scientists have engineered E coli so that it can harness sunlight like a plant. Incorporating a custom ...

Quantum mechanics plays a role in the process of photosynthesis. Engineers have long sought efficient ways to convert solar energy into storable chemical energy. Nature perfected this process billions ...

Prochlorococcus bacteria are so small that you’d have ... The ocean seethes with them: The microbes are likely the most abundant photosynthetic organism on the planet, and they create a ...

Bacterias for Carbon Sequestration. Research Scientists Unicellular Organisms. Soil Microorganisms Under Microscope Including Amoeba, Flagellates, Nematodes, Fungi, Bacteria From Healthy Soil.

A new study is shining fresh light on how green plants and other photosynthetic organisms transport solar energy so efficiently. The latest research also highlights the importance of quantum mechanics ...

Jürgen Hauer explains, "When light is absorbed in a leaf, for example ... in green plants and other photosynthetic organisms, such as photosynthetic bacteria. However, the exact mechanisms ...

Purple Earth Hypothesis suggests Earth was once a purple planet. Early microbes used retinal, not chlorophyll, for ...

Nature, however, has already developed its own solution to this problem: plants, algae, and photosynthetic bacteria are the world's best tools for removing carbon dioxide (CO 2) from the atmosphere.

Examples of endosymbiosis are everywhere. Mitochondria, the energy factories in your cells, were once free-living bacteria. Photosynthetic plants owe their sun-spun sugars to the chloroplast ...

We describe the general background and the recent advances in research on underwater photosynthesis of leaf segments, whole communities, and plant dominated aquatic ecosystems and present contemporary ...
