There are other photosynthetic pigments such as Bacteriorhodopsin and vertebrate rhodopsin. Bacteriorhodopsin is used by the halobacteria in the Archaea and vertebrate rhopdopsin is to be found in the retina in the eyes of vertebrates. I'm sure there must be others... -Martin.

I don't think rhodopsin qualifies as a photosynthetic pigment. I added phycobilin, bacteriorhodopsin and bacteriochlorophyll. Do we have them all now? AxelBoldt 06:23, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)


What! Photosynthetic pigments are not photosynthetic pigment! I am outraged. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ksteuber (talk • contribs) 00:35, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
