AMES, Iowa, Dec. 13 (TNSres) -- Iowa State University's College of Agriculture and Life Sciences issued the following news release:
Scientists know that many bacteria have proteins that give them the ability to sense light. This ability helps some bacteria use light for energy. Many other bacteria cannot use light as energy but can still sense light. How these non-photosynthetic bacteria benefit from using light cues has not been well understood.
