Scientists have long known that chloroplasts help plants turn the sun’s energy into food, but a new study, led by plant biologists at the University of California, Davis, shows that they are also ...

Humans owe a lot to photosynthesis, the process by which green plants turn water and carbon dioxide into the food we eat and the air we breathe.But this 3.5-billion-year-old biochemical process is ...

A team of researchers has, for the first time, demonstrated that by fixing a common glitch in photosynthesis, a crop’s yield could be improved by around 40 percent. The landmark study suggests ...

These living workshops are consumed with photosynthesis and cellular respiration— processes dedicated to making, breaking, and reshaping molecules with the singular purpose of keeping a plant alive.

Prior to this new research, other scientists had shown (here and here) that it’s possible to grow bigger plants by tweaking levels of cytochrome b6f—they were sometimes able to boost plant ...

The system, called Bioo Lite, harnesses the power of photosynthesis and generates electricity using only water, soil and any common house plant. (We might have suggested the name Power Plant, but ...

We'll also explain which non-plant organisms use photosynthesis to survive and how unusual plants like cacti turn everyday bits of nature into food. Photosynthesis: A Chemical and Biological Process.

Photosynthesis interrupted: Plant parts used to generate electricity. Ramaraja Ramasamy,right, and Yogeswaran Umasankar work together to capture energy created during photosynthesis.

In a first, the European Space Agency (ESA) has announced it is using the power of photosynthesis to get plants to send signals to satellites. Dutch company Plant-e and Lacuna Space helped the ...

The plant is very efficient as most biological things are at creating biological material that serves a purpose in this case photosynthesis. Maby slightly offtopic but i think worth pointing out ...
