BEIJING -- A Chinese research team has developed a carbon-based nanomaterial from agricultural waste biomass that can enhance plant photosynthesis and potentially boost crop growth.

A group of diatom species belonging to the Nitzschia genus gave up on photosynthesis and now get their carbon straight from their environment, thanks to a bacterial gene picked up by an ancestor.

That cut in photosynthesis, the researchers warned, could also impact large-scale crops that humans depend on, such as wheat, corn and rice. Climate change and global warming.

Nature holds the original patent for storing light energy in molecules more successfully than in battery technologies.

Photosynthesis, the process through which plants get energy, grinds to a halt between 40 and 45 degrees Celsius, or 104 to 113 degrees Fahrenheit, ...
