Cytochrome b 6 f (cytb 6 f) lies at the heart of the light-dependent reactions of oxygenic
photosynthesis, where it serves as a link between photosystem II (PSII) and photosystem I …

Hydrogen is an important industrial material and ideal secondary energy. It is widely used in
petrochemical, electronics, metallurgy, food processing, fine organic synthesis, and clean …

Plants and algae require light for photosynthesis, but absorption of too much light can lead
to photo‐oxidative damage to the photosynthetic apparatus and sustained decreases in the …

Microalgae of the genus Nannochloropsis are capable of accumulating triacylglycerols
(TAGs) when exposed to nutrient limitation (in particular, nitrogen [N]) and are therefore …

The photosynthetic electron transport chain consists of photosystem II, the cytochrome b6f
complex, photosystem I, and the free electron carriers plastoquinone and plastocyanin. Light …

The metabolism of microalgae is so flexible that it is not an easy task to give a
comprehensive description of the interplay between the various metabolic pathways. There …

Photosynthetic organisms and isolated photosystems are of interest for technical
applications. In nature, photosynthetic electron transport has to work efficiently in contrasting …

Oxygenic photosynthesis converts solar energy into chemical energy in the chloroplasts of
plants and microalgae as well as in prokaryotic cyanobacteria using a complex machinery …

The xanthophyll cycle represents one of the important photoprotection mechanisms in plant
cells. In the present review, we summarize current knowledge about the violaxanthin cycle of …

Cyanobacteria and microalgae perform oxygenic photosynthesis where light energy is
harnessed to split water into oxygen and protons. This process releases electrons that are …
