Adaptation to Photooxidative Stress: Common and Special Strategies of the Alphaproteobacteria <i>Rhodobacter sphaeroides</i> and <i>Rhodobacter capsulatus</i>
Photosynthetic bacteria have to deal with the risk of photooxidative stress that occurs in presence of light and oxygen due to the photosensitizing activity of (bacterio-) chlorophylls. Facultative phototrophs of the genus <i>Rhodobacter</i> adapt the formation of photosynthetic complexe...
