The history of the journals "Photosynthetica" and "Photosynthesis Research" is traced from its beginning. Their development is related to the history of several publishers (Dr W. Junk Publishers, Martinus Nijhoff, Kluwer Academic Publishers). This account is based on recollections and records of the authors, Ad C. Plaizier, and René Marcelle (the first Editor-in-Chief of Photosynthesis Research).

Additional key words: Kluwer Academic Publishers; Martinus Nijhoff; Photosynthesis Research; Photosynthetica; René Marcelle
