A new Yale study aims to settle a longstanding question about photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight ...

Plants have been using solar energy for millions of years, but advances in machine learning and protein engineering could ...

Cells get nutrients from their environment, but where do those nutrients come from? Virtually all organic material on Earth has been produced by cells that convert energy from the Sun into energy ...

A team led by Nagoya University has shown that artificial photosynthesis is feasible using organic materials. Using the ...

Researchers at the Salk Institute study how C4 photosynthesis could boost crop productivity and climate resilience.

Energy cannot be produced or used up, it can only be converted from one form to another. In photosynthesis, light energy is converted into chemical energy which is stored in the sugar molecules ...

To harness the power of the sun and make sugars for energy storage ... have identified a key step in the transformation between old-fashioned C3 photosynthesis and new and improved C4 ...

This achievement represents a significant step toward sustainable energy and chemical production. The findings were published in Nature Communications. "Artificial photosynthesis involves chemical ...
