Fig. 5From: The effect of enhanced acetate influx on Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 metabolismAbsorption spectra of the cyanobacterial strains. Absorption spectra (400–750 nm) of the Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 acetate transporter expression strain (AT; red line) and the control strain (CS; blue line) grown for 8 days in the MC1000 under continuous low light (20 μmol photons m−2 s−1). The absorption peaks for Chl a (680 nm) and carotenoids (485 nm) are indicated by arrows. The graphs are representatives of four parallel biological replicates, and have been normalized to 750 nmBack to article page
