For photosynthesis, one photon is all it takes. Only a single particle of light is required to spark the first steps of the biological process that converts light into chemical energy, scientists ...
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 ...
Last week, we very briefly mentioned how plant life undergoes photosynthesis. It’s time to dust off your nature knowledge from high school... and maybe add some more facts along the way. * Here’s the ...
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 ...

Chinese scientists copy photosynthesis to turn CO₂ into gasoline breakthrough
Chinese researchers have built a working version of what oil companies have chased for decades: a device that uses sunlight to turn carbon dioxide into the building blocks of gasoline. Instead of ...
A team of scientists discovered a naturally occurring gene in the poplar tree that enhances photosynthetic activity and significantly boosts plant growth. The gene, Booster, contains DNA from two ...
