Green bacteria anoxygenic photosynthesis

Anoxygenic photosynthesis Type of photosynthesis in green and purple bacteria in which oxygen is not produced. [Pg.604]

Flowever, many photosynthetic bacteria, such as purple sulfur and green sulfur bacteria contain special bacteriochlorophyll compounds (not chlorophyll a) and carry out anoxygenic photosynthesis without producing oxygen ... [Pg.35]

Many phototrophs do not produce O2 as a waste product. Such anoxygenic phototrophs are comprised of purple sulfur, purple nonsulfur, green sulfur, and green nonsulfur bacteria. Although purple sulfur bacteria are typically found in anoxic zones of lakes and sediments, many are capable of photosynthesis under oxic conditions (Van Gemer-den, 1993). Most fix N2 and store S° intra- or extracellularly, and some are capable of chemo-lithoautotrophic growth. Extreme halophilic, sulfi-dic, and mildly thermophilic environments harbor... [Pg.4187]
