The year 2024 marks 70 years since the general outline of the carbon pathway in
photosynthesis was published. Although several alternative pathways are now known, it is …

The photorespiratory repair pathway (photorespiration in short) was set up from ancient
metabolic modules about three billion years ago in cyanobacteria, the later ancestors of …

CO2 release in the light (RL) and its presumed source, oxidative pentose phosphate
pathways, were found to be insensitive to CO2 concentration. The oxidative pentose …

Daylength, a seasonal and latitudinal variable, exerts a substantial impact on plant growth.
However, the relationship between daylength and growth is nonproportional, suggesting the …

Respiration in the light (RL) releases CO2 in photosynthesizing leaves and is a
phenomenon that occurs independently from photorespiration. Since RL lowers net carbon …

Diurnal dark to light transition causes profound physiological changes in plant metabolism.
These changes require distinct modes of regulation as a unique feature of photosynthetic …

The pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) is divided into an oxidative branch that makes
pentose phosphates and a non-oxidative branch that consumes pentose phosphates …

To achieve ultrahigh-efficient ammonium removal and valuable biomass coproduction,
Chlorella-mediated short-time acclimation was implemented in photo-fermentation. The …

The oxidative pentose phosphate (OPP) pathway is a fundamental carbon catabolic route for
generating reducing power and metabolic intermediates for biosynthetic processes. In …

Photosynthetically produced electrons provide energy for various metabolic pathways,
including carbon reduction. Four Calvin-Benson cycle enzymes and several other plastid …
