Advancements in materials science, synthetic biology, and nanomaterial engineering are revolutionizing renewable energy technologies, creating new pathways for sustainable energy production. Biohybrid devices-systems combining biological components with engineered synthetic materials-are emerging as powerful platforms for harnessing solar energy to drive hydrogen production, photovoltaics, catalysis, and biosensing. This collection of articles presents leading-edge research in biohybrid energy systems, where photosynthetic mechanisms are redeployed to develop eco-friendly, high-efficiency alternatives to conventional solar technologies.

A total of 946 sets of comparative data were collected from 20 publications and a meta-analysis performed to evaluate the responses of growth, photosynthetic capacity, oxidative stress and antioxidants in females and males under exposure to heavy metals, like Cu, Mn, Zn, Pb and Cd. It was found that heavy metals have negative effects on growth and photosynthetic capacity, as the average total biomass, leaf biomass, stem biomass, root biomass and height decreased by 29.78%, 33.

In the current investigation, the combination of selenium (Se) and epibrassinolide (EBL) exhibited a promising alleviative response against the concurrent stress of heat and drought in wheat plants. The compromised growth and photosynthetic performance of wheat plants under the combined stress of heat and drought were substantially improved with the treatment involving Se and EBL. This improvement was facilitated through the expression of Q9FIE3 and O04939 proteins, along with enhanced antioxidant activities.

Accumulation of edible biomass by crop plants relies on maintenance of a high photosynthetic rates across the photoperiod, with assimilation rate () generally responding to increasing light intensity in a hyperbolic fashion. In natural environments light fluctuates greatly over the course of the day, however in Controlled Environmental Agricultural (CEA) systems, light intensity can be supplemented or precisely controlled using LEDs to create near optimum conditions. In such indoor growth environments light is often delivered as a square wave and recommendations to horticulturalists are given in the form of Daily Light Integrals (DLI).
