The impact of modifying photosystem antenna size on canopy photosynthetic efficiency—Development of a new canopy photosynthesis model scaling from metabolism to canopy level processes

Canopy photosynthesis (Ac ) describes photosynthesis of an entire crop field and the daily and seasonal integrals of Ac positively correlate with daily and seasonal biomass production. Much effort in crop breeding has focused on improving canopy architecture and hence light distribution inside the canopy. Here, we develop a new integrated canopy photosynthesis model including canopy architectur...

Efficiency of solar energy conversion as a function of light intensity*

The kinetic model has been developed for disserting the efficiency of solar energy conversion as a function of light intensity. A comparison of theory with experimental results shows that the model provides a satisfactory agreement. We have estimated the essential parameters of photosynthetic systems (the size of the photosynthetic antenna, the rate of electron transport, the correlation betwee...

Engineering photosynthetic light capture: impacts on improved solar energy to biomass conversion.

The main function of the photosynthetic process is to capture solar energy and to store it in the form of chemical 'fuels'. Increasingly, the photosynthetic machinery is being used for the production of biofuels such as bio-ethanol, biodiesel and bio-H2. Fuel production efficiency is directly dependent on the solar photon capture and conversion efficiency of the system. Green algae (e.g. Chlamy...
