Chlorophyll b is decomposed by chlorophyllase to form pheophytin b. This causes its color to change from green to olive brown. It is involved in the harvesting of light energy and its subsequent conversion into chemical energy during photosynthesis. Along with chlorophyll a, it plays a key role in the ability of plants to adapt to varying light intensities. The visible spectrum that is not absorbed when only chlorophyll a is present in the LHC.

产品信息
Intro
Chlorophyll b 通过叶绿素酶分解形成脱镁叶绿素 b。这导致其颜色从绿色变为橄榄棕色。它参与光合作用过程中光能的收集及其随后转化为化学能。与叶绿素 a 一起,它在植物适应不同光强度的能力中起着关键作用。当 LHC 中仅存在叶绿素 a 时,未被吸收的可见光谱。
