Intriguing diversity among diazotrophic picoplankton along a Mediterranean transect: a dominance of rhizobia
The Mediterranean Sea is one of the most oligotrophic marine areas on earth where nitrogen fixation has formally believed to play an important role in carbon and nitrogen fluxes. Although this view is under debate, the diazotrophs responsible for this activity have still not been investigated in the...
