RIPE researchers determine chloroplast size unlikely option for improving photosynthetic efficiency
 Realizing Increased Photosynthetic Efficiency (RIPE) Project

A group of RIPE researchers have found, for the first time, that chloroplast size manipulations are unlikely to be an option for increasing crop photosynthetic efficiency. Their work was recently published in New Phytologist.

Unveiling the secrets of green pods: The role of soybean pods and seeds in photosynthesis
 Realizing Increased Photosynthetic Efficiency (RIPE) Project

Many people study photosynthesis in plant leaves, but since the pods and immature seeds (edamame) of soybean plants are also green, they are receiving chlorophyll and should be studied as well. Researchers with the RIPE Project discovered that chlorophyll in soybean pods plays a vital role in the plant’s photosynthetic process and significantly contributes to soybean yield.
