However, light that leaves our star also contains UVC radiation, which has a shorter wavelength than UVA or UVB light and ...

Due to the L-theanine levels in matcha, it’s generally considered better for gut health than coffee. Coffee is more acidic ...

The efficient conversion of solar energy into storable forms of chemical energy is the dream of many engineers. Nature found a perfect solution to this problem billions of years ago. A new study ...

Significant differences of leaf chlorophyll content were observed between different light spectra. The R treatment showed significantly higher chlorophyll total levels than the CW light.

By studying dichroism and polarization of fluorescence for chlorophyll a, b, bacteriochlorophyll and the corresponding phæophytins, these directions have been investigated.

Manipulation of light environments promotes the accumulation of chlorophyll, carotenoid, and anthocyanin, and enhances photosynthesis and electron transport rates by increasing the density of ...

Light plays a fundamental role in the growth and development of plants. It serves as an essential energy source for ...

"Chlorophyll may not sample the peak of the solar spectrum, but it makes better use of the light that it does absorb," Sparks explained.

It is difficult to quantify the amount of chlorophyll fluorescence emitted by a leaf or canopy under natural sunlight because the reflected light obscures the fluorescence signal. In this study, two ...

Chlorophyll gets its name from the Greek word "chloros," which means "yellowish-green," according to WebExhibits. But how does it make your freshly cut lawn appear a gorgeous green?
