Chlorophylls and Bacteriochlorophylls Biochemistry, Biophysics, Functions and Applications /

Chlorophylls are the most obvious natural pigments on Earth where they can be observed even from satellites in outer space: they also sustain life on Earth through their involvement in photosynthesis. With 37 authoritative chapters, this book reviews recent progress and current status of studies on...
