Microalgae are potential hosts for the sustainable production of valuable chemicals using CO2 as feedstock and light as an energy source. In whole-cell applications, biosynthetic reactions of interest are supplied with ...

Boreal evergreen conifers are important for Northern countries and have functioned for centuries as main drivers of the economy. Nowadays, the attention has shifted to the sustainability of the boreal forests, their ...

Plants are photosynthetic organisms that use light to reduce carbon dioxide, nitrate and sulfate to synthesise the organic molecules that are the building blocks of all life. The reductants are produced in the photosynthetic ...

Photosynthetic light reactions take place in the thylakoid membranes, where lightdriven electron transfer occurs from water to carbon dioxide through two photosystems (PSII and PSI), between of which is an electron-transferring ...

The ability of oxygenic photosynthetic organisms to develop protective mechanisms for the regulation of the photosynthetic apparatus is crucial for their survival in continuously changing environmental conditions. The ...

Photosynthesis is the most fundamental process for life on Earth. Sunlight is highly variable and fluctuates both in intensity and duration, which induces short and longterm responses in photosynthetic organisms. Photosynthetic ...

Photosynthetic microorganisms, such as cyanobacteria and microalgae play a key role in the ecosystem while also holding great economic potential for a sustainable future. These organisms offer diverse applications, ranging ...

Certain sea slugs “steal” the photosynthetic cellular organelles, the plastids, from their prey algae and incorporate them, still functional, inside their own cells. These animals can then remain photosynthetic for months. ...
