Gustavo Gutiérrez-Gómez

Dear Aleksandar

You Refers to molecularly structural analogues talking or fulfilling analogous functions in brown algae?

Aleksandar Simeonov

Hi Gustavo,

I am interested more in functional analogy. Are there any pigments in brown and red algae that do not participate in photosynthesis but absorb wavelengths of sunlight that are not absorbed by the chlorophylls, carotenoids and phycobilins?

This document is a good review that can serve to you.
