This book contains selected overviews on several important aspects of
photosynthesis and provides both tutorial content and critical insight into the
future of photosynthesis research. Photosynthesis has been a challenging
scientific topic since it deals with the process by which a wide range of
organisms from bacteria to higher plants convert solar energy to chemical energy
for producing food, fibre and fuel out of small molecules of carbon dioxide and
water. Deeper and greater understanding of this process holds a promise for a
