    Paul & Newton introduce a highly interesting paper on how and why plants/microorganisms developed #energy production from #sunlight twice differently.

    (And yes, we also have rhodopsin in our eyes, we "see" with it. From the incoming light it produces electric signals for the brain.)

  11. #PhotoOfTheDay: A Sea Aswirl With #Chlorophyll

    One of NASA’s newest Earth-observing sensors extends and improves the continuous measurement of light-harvesting pigments in ocean surface waters.

    These images of the southern Norwegian Sea were created using observations made by PACE’s OCI on July 12, 2025.

  12. Chen et al. report a new gap-free #genome and efficient transcript purification system in the perennial herbaceous #fruit tree #pitaya (Hylocereus spp.), aka dragonfruit, revealing genome diversity and #chlorophyll degradation mechanisms.

  16. Recently I had a deep and long discussion with a teenager that touched several unrelated topics such as photosynthesis, human (mind) evolution, and the consistency of laws of physics in our universe.
    First of all, this kind of talk I will choose over the "small talk" any day. It was awesome.

    Secondly, the discussion encouraged me to refresh my knowledge and even learn new things. I got to browsing.

    Thus I have learned (or remembered - difficult to say now) that even plants with red leaves have normal green chloroplasts. Just with additional red pigment anthocyanin that supposedly help plants to protect against harsh sun.

    Also, I have (re)learned about neoteny in humans. Wow. This thing explains a lot!
    en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoten
    It seems neoteny was (and perhaps still is) one of the major factors of quick and powerful evolution of human brains and high thinking, and thus human civilization.

    I should probably look up for the theories of "consistent laws" of the universe next...
