When temperatures rise, California redwoods slow down their rate of photosynthesis, a discovery that could have implications ...

A new tribute article in Frontiers in Photobiology chronicles Giovanni Venturoli's decades of research on bacterial ...

New research reveals that polar phytoplankton sustain photosynthesis in near-darkness by suppressing wasteful charge recombinations in Photosystem II, a feat enabled by the cold temperatures they ...

In heat wave-like temperatures, coast redwoods' photosynthesis slows down, which may put one of Earth's most efficient carbon ...

A spinach leaf can turn light into chemical energy. A struggling heart cannot. Researchers in China have brought part of the ...

Researchers have caught their best glimpse yet into the origins of photosynthesis, one of nature’s most momentous innovations. By taking near-atomic, high-resolution X-ray images of proteins from ...

Researchers have 'hacked' the earliest stages of photosynthesis, the natural machine that powers the vast majority of life on Earth, and discovered new ways to extract energy from the process, a ...

Sunlight drives nearly all life on Earth, but much remains a mystery about the light-harvesting molecules on which biology depends in photosynthesis. In a new study published online June 14 in the ...

Researchers find that the earliest bacteria had the tools to perform a crucial step in photosynthesis, changing how we think life evolved on Earth. Researchers find that the earliest bacteria had the ...

Now that we're well past the start of spring, you're probably inured already to all the green. I mean, after those long months of winter, everyone's pumped about the first buds and shoots — so bright ...
