Photosynthetic pigments are an integral and vital part of all photosynthetic machinery and
are present in different types and abundances throughout the photosynthetic apparatus …

The current trajectory for crop yields is insufficient to nourish the world's population by 2050.
Greater and more consistent crop production must be achieved against a backdrop of …

A number of recent studies have provided strong support demonstrating that improving the
photosynthetic processes through genetic engineering can provide an avenue to improve …

Global food security depends on three main cereal crops (wheat, rice and maize) achieving
and maintaining high yields, as well as increasing their future yields. Fundamental to the …

The ratio of plant carbon gain to water use, known as water use efficiency (WUE), has long
been recognized as a key constraint on crop production and an important target for crop …

Increasing global population and climate change uncertainties have compelled increased
photosynthetic efficiency and yields to ensure food security over the coming decades …

Photosynthetic carbon converted to sucrose is vital for plant growth. Sucrose acts as a
signaling molecule and a primary energy source that coordinates the source and sink …

Carbon fixation is the process by which CO2 is converted from a gas into biomass. The
Calvin–Benson–Bassham cycle (CBB) is the dominant carbon-consuming pathway on …

Previous studies have demonstrated that the independent stimulation of either electron
transport or RuBP regeneration can increase the rate of photosynthetic carbon assimilation …

Photosynthesis is currently a focus for crop improvement. The majority of this work has taken
place and been assessed in leaves, and limited consideration has been given to the …
