Demmig-AdamsNote: From the abstract: “Development of a productive, nutritious, and low-input food source is needed for humanity’s expanding population on Earth and for long-duration crewed space missions. The exceptionally protein- and micronutrient-rich members of the aquatic plant family Lemnaceae are uniquely suited for both purposes. Here, we introduce a protocol to accumulate large quantities of the carotenoid zeaxanthin that are retained post-high-light exposure.”
