Photosynthesis

Genetic hack used to 'fix' glitch in plant photosynthesis boosts yield by 40 percent

Such experiments have been carried out over the past 5-6 years, without much success: Researcher.

Scientists publish 'guide book' based on existing research to search for alien life

Scientists have identified more than 3,500 planets around other stars (called exoplanets).

Scientists find new type of photosynthesis that may redirect hunt for alien life

Scientists have found a new kind of photosynthesis that could have huge consequences for life on Earth and beyond

Animals and plants aren't the only categorisation for living beings; there are several which defy classification

Animals eat other animals or plants to get energy for their survival since they can move. Plants get energy for their survival from the sun, because they cannot move. But there are beings that defy these rules

Scientists show nature who's boss with super-efficient bionic leaf

Scientists have created a bionic leaf, a device that can replicate the process of photosynthesis

Scientists use solar enegery to create electricity, fuels

The new technology mimics photosynthesis by combining sunlight and water in such a way that promises storable fuels.
