Knowledge on light harvesting system and the reaction centres in plant during photosynthesis (C3, C4 Cam) are well established. Energy absorption& photon transport system in photosystem 1 (P680) and 2 (P700) for chemical reaction to produce ATP and NADPH which used in C fixation cycle is well documented. Hope you are interested in quantum physics in photosynthesis. Please refer this paper for more clarification.

In quantum mechanics, all objects have wave-like properties (see de Broglie waves). For instance, in Young's double-slit experiment electrons can be used in the place of light waves. Each electron's wave-function goes through both slits, and hence has two separate split-beams that contribute to the intensity pattern on a screen. According to standard wave theory (Fresnel, Huygens) these two contributions give rise to an intensity pattern of bright bands due to constructive interference, interlaced with dark bands due to destructive interference, on a downstream screen. (Each split-beam, by itself, generates a diffraction pattern with less noticeable, more widely spaced dark and light bands.) This ability to interfere and diffract is related to coherence (classical or quantum) of the wave. The association of an electron with a wave is unique to quantum theory.
Quantum coherence may refer to different things and need to be defined in the context that it is used. Some people used it to refer to coherent transport of excitations (ballistic transport), while other use it to discuss the excitation of a coherent superposition of eigenstates. Quantum coherence in biological systems is currently a hot topic with a heated debate especially following the claims that such effects are seen at physiological temperature in for example the Fenna-Matthews-Olson complex.

In my opinion, the application of the term "quantum coherence" to the processes of electron transfer and to energy transfer between LH complexes and RC does not reflect the essence and mechanism of the process itself. In bacterial photosynthesis, we have a vivid example of the manifestation of coherence of collective oscillations (oscillations of many particles) that initiate energy and electron transport. Despite the fact that this topic was discussed by me many years ago, I do not see any noticeable changes in the notion of the essence of the problem. And this situation will remain unchanged for many more years, because the desire to paraphrase and adapt other people's results in interpreting new own experimental data blinds the authors of a number of modern works. This is a scheme of attempts not to solve scientific problems, but to earn money. It is impossible to fight against it, but one thing is clear: the lack of ethics is incompatible with the effective promotion of an understanding of the essence of scientific problems...
Some examples of understanding the problem of coherence in bacterial photosynthesis can be found in my works. I will be glad if they will be of use to you and someone else.

Please look out for this space, I may post another article about coherences in "electron transfer" in a month or so. That article may be more helpful in understanding what do we mean by coherences and when can they become functional.
