"The number of PR molecules and amount of Bchl [Bacteriochlorophyll] a per
cell have been used to evaluate the commitment of bacteria
with these light-harvesting systems to phototrophy in
natural microbial communities (Giovannoni et al., 2005a
Cottrell et al., 2006). Although PR genes and expression
have been extensively examined, few studies have estimated
the number of PR molecules per cell (Table 2)." See notes beneath table |
