EVIDENCE FOR INTERGENERIC TRANSFORMATION IN FILAMENTOUS, DIAZOTROPHIC CYANOBACTERIA [PDF]
SummaryA clonal population of a mutant Nostoc muscorum, with the ability to assimilate azide as a fixed nitrogen source, was used as a source of donor DNA for transforming Anabaena doliolum from an azide‐sensitive to an azide‐assimilating phenotype. The donor DNA. transformed A.

Natural transformation of the filamentous cyanobacterium Phormidium lacuna.
Research for biotechnological applications of cyanobacteria focuses on synthetic pathways and bioreactor design, while little effort is devoted to introduce new, promising organisms in the field. Applications are most often based on recombinant work, and

Cyanophycin mediates the accumulation and storage of fixed carbon in non-heterocystous filamentous cyanobacteria from coniform mats. [PDF]
Thin, filamentous, non-heterocystous, benthic cyanobacteria (Subsection III) from some marine, lacustrine and thermal environments aggregate into macroscopic cones and conical stromatolites.

Here we present the first genomic characterization of viruses infecting Nostoc, a genus of ecologically important cyanobacteria that are widespread in freshwater. Cyanophages A-1 and N-1 were isolated in the 1970s and infect Nostoc sp.

The multicellular nature of filamentous heterocyst-forming cyanobacteria [PDF]
Cyanobacteria carry out oxygenic photosynthesis, play a key role in the cycling of carbon and nitrogen in the biosphere, and have had a large impact on the evolution of life and the Earth itself. Many cyanobacterial strains exhibit a multicellular lifestyle, growing as filaments that can be hundreds of cells long and endowed with intercellular ...

Envelope structure of four gliding filamentous cyanobacteria [PDF]
The cell walls of four gliding filamentous Oscillatoriaceae species comprising three different genera were studied by freeze substitution, freeze fracturing, and negative staining. In all species, the multilayered gram-negative cell wall is covered with a complex external double layer. The first layer is a tetragonal crystalline S-layer anchored on the

The evolution of a capacity to build supra-cellular ropes enabled filamentous cyanobacteria to colonize highly erodible substrates. [PDF]
Several motile, filamentous cyanobacteria display the ability to self-assemble into tightly woven or twisted groups of filaments that form macroscopic yarns or ropes, and that are often centimeters long and 50-200 microm in diameter.
