Abstract
In this historical perspective, we focus on selected discoveries that Albert Frenkel (1919-2015) made all by himself - single-handedly - which is the discovery of photophosphorylation and NAD reduction in anoxygenic photosynthetic bacteria. Then, we present various aspects of his research life through his unpublished letters with some key scientists in his research field. To give a glimpse of his personal life, we have also provided some photographs.
期刊介绍：
Photosynthetica publishes original scientific papers and brief communications, reviews on specialized topics, book reviews and announcements and reports covering wide range of photosynthesis research or research including photosynthetic parameters of both experimental and theoretical nature and dealing with physiology, biophysics, biochemistry, molecular biology on one side and leaf optics, stress physiology and ecology of photosynthesis on the other side.
The language of journal is English (British or American). Papers should not be published or under consideration for publication elsewhere.
