在光合生物中，类胡萝卜素具有多种不同的作用。然而，由于在体外和体内检查类胡萝卜素的电子态能量和动力学时遇到了深刻的技术困难，仍然存在一些问题，并且许多数据和结果的解释存在争议。本文将讨论其中一些问题和争议，这些问题和争议的解决对于阐明类胡萝卜素在光合作用系统中的功能方式非常重要。
In photosynthetic organisms, carotenoids have been implicated in several diverse roles. Yet, owing to profound technical difficulties encountered in attempting to examine the electronic state energies and dynamics of carotenoids both in vitro and in vivo, several questions remain, and much of the data and interpretations of the results are controversial. This paper will discuss some of these questions and controversies, the resolution of which is important in unraveling the manner in which carotenoids function in photosynthetic systems.
