If you want to understand the mechanics of photosynthesis, you have to understand RuBisCO, Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase.

No acclimation: flexible responses of photosynthesis to different temperatures in American elm
Will photosynthetic processes of trees be able to keep up with future changes in temperature and precipitation under climate change?

What happens to nutrients, after a carnivorous plant has digested its prey?
While carnivorous plants eat insects, they get most of their energy from photosynthesis, like other plants. New research investigates how carnivory affects photosynthesis.
Stomatal anatomy coordinates leaf size with Rubisco kinetics in Limonium
Stomatal anatomy integrates Rubisco kinetics and leaf size in Limonium species, consistent with selection on functional coordination and shared developmental pathways.
Sink-source imbalance and down-regulation of photosynthesis
Sink-source imbalance could cause accumulation of total non-structural carbohydrates (TNC) and down-regulation of photosynthesis. Sugiura et al. investigate how sink-source imbalance causes photosynthetic down...

Where in the epidermis would you find chloroplasts?
There are several answers to this question. I expect all of you to say guard cells. Those of you who’ve read the previous item about chlorophagy might also be tempted to say plant vacuoles – presumably of guard cells...

Effects of environmental factors on dark-adapted photosynthetic induction
Plants grow in a variable environment. While the effects of various environmental factors such as CO2 concentration, temperature, air humidity, and blue light on steady-state photosynthesis have been well documented...

Plant evolution: The inevitability of C4 photosynthesis
C4 photosynthesis may have evolved first to correct an intercellular nitrogen imbalance, and only later evolved a central role in carbon fixation.

Spotlight on macronutrients : Carbon (mainly)
Whilst members of the Plant Kingdom might dominate terrestrial biomes, non-Plant Kingdom members are the major photosynthetic organisms in aquatic habitats
Adaptation of cotton bracts to high CO2
They conclude that cotton bracts provide readily available material for studying adaptations to elevated CO2.
