Rapidly growing industrialization and depletion of non-renewable fossil fuel has led to
finding alternative viable renewable resources to meet the growing energy demand with less …

The development of photosynthesis was a highlight in the progression of bacteria. In
addition to the photosystems with their structural proteins, the photosynthesis apparatus …

Phycobilisome (PBS) structures are elaborate antennae in cyanobacteria and red algae,.
These large protein complexes capture incident sunlight and transfer the energy through a …

Cyanobacteria and red-algae share a common light-harvesting complex which is different
than all other complexes that serve as photosynthetic antennas–the Phycobilisome (PBS) …

Photosynthetic organisms are exposed to a fluctuating environment in which light intensity
and quality change continuously. Specific illumination of either photosystem (PSI or PSII) …

Abstract The Sustainable Development Goals link pollutant control with carbon dioxide
reduction. Toward the goal of pollutant and carbon reduction, microalgae-based wastewater …

The phycobilisome is an oligomeric chromoprotein complex that serves as the principal mid-
visible light-harvesting system in cyanobacteria. Here we report the observation of excitation …

The apparent increase in solar ultraviolet (UV) radiations on the Earth's surface, due to
continuous depletion or diminishing of the stratospheric ozone shield has triggered serious …

Lichens often grow in microhabitats where they are exposed to severe abiotic stresses such
as desiccation and temperature extremes. They are also often exposed to levels of light that …

The most ubiquitous cyanobacteria, Synechococcus, have colonized different marine
thermal niches through the evolutionary specialization of lineages adapted to different …
