= Anoxygenic photosynthesis
{wiki}
<Anoxygenic photosynthesis> captures <light> without producing <molecular oxygen>. It occurs in some <bacteria> and uses <Electron> sources other than <water>. Whether <carbon fixation> accompanies this <light> capture depends on the <organism> and conditions; <photosynthesis> does not imply one universal <carbon>-assimilation pathway.
