Minute amounts of photosynthesis in marine plants can be accurately measured by adding a
little phenolphthalein to the sea water, and observing changes in the color of the indicator. In …

It is impossible today to present a relatively short book on photosynthesis in such a way that
it can be regarded as exhaustive. This is the case even if the book has to cover marine …

The influence of the various controlling factors on the rate of photosynthesis is one of the
most interesting problems met with in the study of the living plant. If the photosynthetic cycle …

Photosynthesis reaches its maximum rate at about the same light intensity over the whole
range of chlorophyll concentrations studied. 2. Over this range the process shows the same …

In many reactions proceeding in living cells the concentration of the reactants changes with
time, and hence our knowledge of the nature of the mechanism cannot proceed very far …

The photosynthetic process under completely natural conditions is highly variable from time
to time and place to place. The same can be said for practically all other processes occurring …

To address the topic of the ecophysiology of photosynthesis in aquatic plants in the space
allotted is a daunting task, and the coverage must of necessity be very selective. Since this …

The rate of photosynthesis in plants is much lower during the first moments of illumination
after a longer dark period than in continuous light. The time during which the rate rises is …

Many reviews on photosynthesis have recently appeared. Particularly useful to one already
familiar with the field are the books “The Chlorophylls”(Vernon and Seely, 1966) and Current …

Short-term photosynthetic experiments using C14O2 and paper chromatography were
performed with 27 different plants representing nine phyla: Schizophyta (Schizophyceae) …
