Background With limited agricultural land and increasing human population, it is essential to
enhance overall photosynthesis and thus productivity. Oxygenic photosynthesis begins with …

The fast (up to 1 s) chlorophyll (Chl) a fluorescence induction (FI) curve, measured under
saturating continuous light, has a photochemical phase, the O–J rise, related mainly to the …

Since the ground breaking work of Norman Borlaug in the 1960s produced large increases
in yields of our major cereal crops, we have seen a gradual decline in annual yield progress …

To meet future food and energy security needs, which are amplified by increasing
population growth and reduced natural resource availability, metabolic engineering efforts …

Photosystem I (PSI) is generally assumed not to emit variable chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence
during light-induced Chl fluorescence rise (FLR), which occurs in a time window upto 1 s …

Cyanobacteria are phototrophic microorganisms of global importance and have recently
attracted increasing attention due to their capability to convert sunlight and atmospheric CO2 …

Abstract Background Modeling the Calvin-Benson cycle has a history in the field of
theoretical biology. Anyone who intends to model this system will look at existing models to …

Photosynthetic models sometimes incorporate meteorological elements typically recorded at
a time interval of 10 min or 1 h. Because these data are calculated by averaging …

Biochemical Space (BCS) has been introduced as a semi-formal notation for reaction
networks of biological processes. It provides a concise mapping of mathematical models to …

In this tool paper, we target the problem of unique annotation of organism-specific
computational models presented in a public model database. In particular, we present …
