Remembering Professor Prasanna K. Mohanty (April 1, 1934 – March 9, 2013)

Abstract

On March 9, 2018, 5 years had passed since Prasanna K. Mohanty, an extraordinary student of photosynthesis, plant biologist par excellence, a pioneer of Light Regulation of Photosynthesis, a renowned mentor, and a friend of a vast international community of scientists left us. Many of us, who knew him, miss him dearly and cherish his fond memories. Here we include some of the late responses we have received from many friends of Prasanna Mohanty and announce the launch of Prasanna K. Mohanty fellowship for young researchers working in the area of photosynthesis by the International Society of Photosynthesis Research. Keywords: Photosynthesis, Prasanna K.
