Engineers at Osaka Metropolitan University have built an artificial-photosynthesis system that produces liquid solar fuel ...

Researchers at The Australian National University (ANU) have uncovered a mechanism that helps plants continue photosynthesizing under extreme heat and dry air conditions—a finding that could improve ...

Unlike conventional solar systems, which are hampered by the sun’s fluctuations and require backup systems to even them out, ...

A new study provides the first insights into how thylakoid membranes—the internal compartments where oxygen-producing ...

Researchers have discovered how certain photosynthetic bacteria use a sophisticated quantum mechanism to increase their ...

Researchers find that the earliest bacteria had the tools to perform a crucial step in photosynthesis, changing how we think life evolved on Earth. Researchers find that the earliest bacteria had the ...

Unlike us, plants don't need pantries full of food to stay alive; the Sun is their pantry. But, like us, they require fairly regular sustenance, which they create via photosynthesis. This seemingly ...

Sunlight drives nearly all life on Earth, but much remains a mystery about the light-harvesting molecules on which biology depends in photosynthesis. In a new study published online June 14 in the ...

Researchers have caught their best glimpse yet into the origins of photosynthesis, one of nature’s most momentous innovations. By taking near-atomic, high-resolution X-ray images of proteins from ...

The discovery changes our understanding of the basic mechanism of photosynthesis and should rewrite the textbooks. It will also tailor the way we hunt for alien life and provide insights into how we ...

Google's special animated Doodle in India highlighted the photosynthesis process on Nov 14 The Doodle shows how plants convert light, carbon dioxide, and water into sugar and oxygen Clicking the ...

Now that we're well past the start of spring, you're probably inured already to all the green. I mean, after those long months of winter, everyone's pumped about the first buds and shoots — so bright ...
