Nitrogen Fixation, Hydrogen Cycling, and Electron Transport Kinetics in Trichodesmium Erythraeum (cyanobacteria) Strain Ims101(1).
This study describes the relationships between dinitrogen (N2 ) fixation, dihydrogen (H2 ) production, and electron transport associated with photosynthesis and respiration in the marine cyanobacterium Trichodesmium erythraeum Ehrenb. strain IMS101. The ratio of H2 produced:N2 fixed (H2 :N2 ) was controlled by the light intensity and by the light spectral composition and was affected by the gro...
متن کاملGliding motility in slide cultures of Myxococcus xanthus in stable and steep chemical gradients.
A method was devised to construct stable and steep chemical gradients in slide cultures to study the movements of gliding cells. The movement of Myxococcus xanthus individual cells and small swarms was studied in these gradients. There was no response to gradients of Casitone and yeast extract that were previously reported to stimulate a positive chemotactic response with M. xanthus.
متن کاملPlanktonic microbial community composition across steep physical/chemical gradients in permanently ice-covered Lake Bonney, Antarctica
Lake Bonney is a chemically stratified, permanently ice-covered Antarctic lake that is unusual because anomalous nutrient concentrations in the east lobe suggest that denitrification occurs in the deep suboxic waters of the west lobe but not the east lobe, resulting in high concentrations of nitrate and nitrite below the east lobe chemocline. Environmental factors that usually control denitrifi...
متن کاملGrowth, nitrogen fixation, and spectral attenuation in cultivated trichodesmium species.
Physiological studies of Trichodesmium species have been hindered by difficulties in maintaining actively growing, nitrogen-fixing cultures. Previous cultivation successes have not been widely duplicated. We present here a simple modified seawater medium and handling techniques which have been used to maintain actively growing Trichodesmium thiebautii in laboratory culture for over 1 year. The ...
متن کاملMicrobiome of Trichodesmium Colonies from the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre
Filamentous diazotrophic Cyanobacteria of the genus Trichodesmium, often found in colonial form, provide an important source of new nitrogen to tropical and subtropical marine ecosystems. Colonies are composed of several clades of Trichodesmium in association with a diverse community of bacterial and eukaryotic epibionts. We used high-throughput 16S rRNA and nifH gene sequencing, carbon (C) and...
