A new kind of chlorophyll that catches sunlight from just beyond the red end of the visible light spectrum has been discovered. The new pigment extends the known range of light that is usable by most ...

Cyanobacteria have evolved a remarkable capacity to harness far-red light through the incorporation of chlorophyll d, a pigment that extends the range of wavelengths available for photosynthesis. This ...

Researchers have sequenced the genome of a rare bacterium that harvests light energy by making an even rarer form of chlorophyll, chlorophyll d. Chlorophyll d absorbs "red edge," near infrared, long ...

Scientists have discovered a new type of chlorophyll in ancient Australian bacteria. The finding could lead to new types of bio-energy to power the future. Over the past 60 years scientists have known ...

For the first time in more than 60 years, researchers have found a new kind of chlorophyll, the pigment used by both plants and bacteria to catch sunlight and convert it into energy by means of ...

TEMPE, Ariz. – A bacterium that harvests far-red light by making a rare form of chlorophyll (chlorophyll d) has revealed its genetic secrets, according to a team of researchers who recently sequenced ...

Scientists have discovered a new type of chlorophyll in ancient Australian bacteria that could lead to new sources of bio-energy. Over the past 60 years, scientists have known of four types of ...
