Chlorophyll f (1) is the most red-shifted absorbing natural chlorophyll reported, and it is assigned the structure [2-formyl]-chlorophyll a (C55H70O6N4Mg). This structural assignment is confirmed based on the relative retention time on HPLC, mass spectroscopy, UV/vis absorption, and CD spectroscopy, and proton and carbon NMR of chlorophyll f purified from Halomicronema hongdechloris.

Color variation in plant leaves has a significant impact on their photosynthesis and plant growth. yellow-leaf mutants are ideal materials for studying the mechanisms of pigment synthesis and photosynthesis, but their mechanism of leaf variation is not clear. We systematically elucidated the intrinsic causes of leaf yellowing in the new variety 'Diecui Liuji' in terms of changes in its cell structure, pigment content, and transcript levels.

is an important landscape tree species whose flower color has high ornamental value. However, the molecular mechanisms regulating flower color in remain unclear. By studying the metabolomics and transcriptomics of three different color varieties under the species lineage of , 'Eigeng' (EG, white), 'Albo-rosea' (AR, pink), and 'Grandiflora' (GF, green), the biosynthetic mechanisms of different flower colors in were revealed.

This study investigates the negative impact of climate change on water resources, specifically water for agricultural irrigation. It describes how to optimize swelling, gel properties and long-term water retention capacities of Na-CMC/PAAm hydrogels for managing drought stress of Sugar beet plants through techniques such as changing the composition, synthetic conditions and chemical modification. Gamma radiation-induced free radical copolymerization was used to synthesize superabsorbent hydrogels using sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (Na-CMC) and acrylamide (AAm).

Molybdate, an oxidized form of molybdenum, facilitates molybdenum to be taken into cell, and thus to be included as a cofactor in the structure of enzymes necessary to ensure homeostasis. Although this compound provides the catalysis and electron transport of many biochemical reactions, it causes serious health problems in animals at high concentrations. For this reason, its recovery of water resources is one of the main subjects of scientific studies called bioremediaiton.

Coral thermal tolerance is intimately linked to their symbiotic relationships with photosynthetic microorganisms. However, the potential compensatory role of symbiotic photosynthetic bacteria in supporting Symbiodiniaceae photosynthesis under extreme summer temperatures remains largely unexplored. Here, we examined the seasonal variations in Symbiodiniaceae and photosynthetic bacterial community structures in Pavona decussata corals from Weizhou Island, Beibu Gulf, China, with particular emphasis on the role of photosynthetic bacteria under elevated temperature conditions.
