Photosynthesis phycobilins

There are two types of pigments in the chloroplasts, chlorophyll and carotenoids. Besides chlorophyll, the chloroplasts of the red algae contain other tetrapyrrole pigments which are active in photosynthesis, these are the phycobilins. The leaves of green plants often contain in the vacuole (i.e. outside the cytoplasm), pigments such as the anthocyanins which do not play any part in photosynthesis. [Pg.354]
