Year: 1986

Type: article

Abstract: A new N2-fixing unicellular cyanobacterium identified as a Synechococcus sp. was isolated and purified as an axenic culture. It fixed N2 aerobically either under continuous illumination or in alternating light-dark cycle. The N2-fixing properties of the new isolate and Gloeocapsa are discussed.
