Molecular mechanisms of photosynthesis / Robert E. Blankenship, Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, Missouri, USA. - Second edition. - xv, 296 pages : illustrations (some color) ; 26 cm
Includes bibliographical references.
The basic principles of photosynthetic energy storage -- Photosynthetic organisms and organelles -- History and early development of photosynthesis -- Photosynthetic pigments: structure and spectroscopy -- Antenna complexes and energy transfer processes -- Reaction centers and electron transport pathways in anoxygenic phototrophs -- Reaction centers and electron transfer pathways in oxygenic photosynthetic organisms -- Chemiosmotic coupling and ATP synthesis -- Carbon metabolism -- Genetics, assembly, and regulation of photosynthetic systems -- The use of chlorophyll fluorescence to probe photosynthesis -- Origin and evolution of photosynthesis -- Bioenergy applications and artificial photosynthesis.
The classic and authoritative textbook, Molecular Mechanisms of Photosynthesis,is now fully revised and updated in this much-anticipated second edition. Whilst retaining the first edition’s clear writing style and accessible description of this complex process, updates now include cutting-edge applications of photosynthesis, such as to bioenergy and artificial photosynthesis as well as new analytical techniques.
