Exploring the low photosynthetic efficiency of cyanobacteria in blue light using a mutant lacking phycobilisomes

The ubiquitous chlorophyll a (Chl a) pigment absorbs both blue and red light. Yet, in contrast to green algae and higher plants, most cyanobacteria have much lower photosynthetic rates in blue than in red light. A plausible but not yet well-supported hypothesis is that blue light results in limited...
