Freshwater cyanobacterial blooms have become ubiquitous, posing major threats to
ecological and public health. Decades of research have focused on understanding drivers of …

A limiting factor for photosynthetic organisms is their light-harvesting efficiency, that is the
efficiency of their conversion of light energy to chemical energy. Small modifications or …

The reliable and efficient production of microalgae in large-scale commercial culture,
whether in open ponds or in closed photobioreactors, requires a good understanding of the …

Chromatic acclimation (CA) encompasses a diverse set of molecular processes that involve
the ability of cyanobacterial cells to sense ambient light colors and use this information to …

Acaryochloris marina is a unique cyanobacterium using chlorophyll d (Chl d) as its major
pigment and thus can use far-red light for photosynthesis. Photosystem II (PSII) of A. marina …

Chromatic acclimation (CA) provides many cyanobacteria with the ability to tailor the
properties of their light-harvesting antennae to the spectral distribution of ambient light. CA …

Cyanobacteriochromes (CBCRs) are linear tetrapyrrole-binding photoreceptors in
cyanobacteria that absorb visible and near-ultraviolet light. CBCRs are divided into two …

Cyanobacteria have evolved various photoacclimation processes to perform oxygenic
photosynthesis under different light environments. Chromatic acclimation (CA) is a widely …

Arabidopsis plants were grown in white light (400–700 nm) or in white light supplemented
with far‐red (FR) light peaking at 730 nm. FR‐enriched light induced the typical shade …

Phycobilisomes are the main light-harvesting protein complexes in cyanobacteria and some
algae. It is commonly accepted that these complexes only absorb green and orange light …
