A Cyanobacteria Enriched Layer of Shark Bay Stromatolites Reveals a New <em>Acaryochloris</em> Strain Living in Near Infrared Light

A Cyanobacteria Enriched Layer of Shark Bay Stromatolites Reveals a New <em>Acaryochloris</em> Strain Living in Near Infrared Light

The genus <i>Acaryochloris</i> is unique among phototrophic organisms due to the dominance of chlorophyll <i>d</i> in its photosynthetic reaction centres and light-harvesting proteins. This allows <i>Acaryochloris</i> to capture light energy for photosynthesis ove...
