Uncovering the Unusual Long Chains of Vegetative Cells within Single Colonies of the Dryland Nitrogen-Fixing Cyanobacterium <i>Nostoc flagelliforme</i>

Uncovering the Unusual Long Chains of Vegetative Cells within Single Colonies of the Dryland Nitrogen-Fixing Cyanobacterium <i>Nostoc flagelliforme</i>

Heterocyst-forming cyanobacteria that colonize the drylands contribute to carbon and nitrogen supplies in nutrient-poor soils. As one of the representative cyanobacteria, <i>Nostoc flagelliforme</i> adapts well to the arid environment in the form of filamentous colonies (or filaments). T...
