Biology, 2021 The variation of diazotrophs has been elusive in multiple SCS and WPO regions due to insufficient data. Therefore, the dynamics of diazotrophic composition and distribution were investigated in this study, based on high-throughput sequencing and ...

Diazotroph community succession during the VAHINE mesocosm experiment (New Caledonia lagoon) [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2015 The VAHINE mesocosm experiment, conducted in the low-nutrient low-chlorophyll waters of the Noumea lagoon (coastal New Caledonia) was designed to trace the incorporation of nitrogen (N) fixed by diazotrophs into the food web, using large volume (50 m3 ...

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Marine phytoplankton are major primary producers, and their growth is primarily limited by nitrogen in the oligotrophic ocean environment. The haptophyte Braarudosphaera bigelowii possesses a cyanobacterial endosymbiont (UCYN-A), which plays a major role

Salinity as a key control on the diazotrophic community composition in the southern Baltic Sea [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2022 Over the next decade, the Baltic Sea is predicted to undergo severe changes including decreased salinity due to altered precipitation related to climate changes.

Contribution and pathways of diazotroph-derived nitrogen to zooplankton during the VAHINE mesocosm experiment in the oligotrophic New Caledonia lagoon [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2016 In oligotrophic tropical and subtropical oceans, where strong stratification can limit the replenishment of surface nitrate, dinitrogen (N2) fixation by diazotrophs can represent a significant source of nitrogen (N) for primary production.

Genetic diversity of the unicellular nitrogen‐fixing cyanobacteria
Environmental Microbiology, 2014 Summary Symbiotic interactions between nitrogen‐fixing prokaryotes and photosynthetic eukaryotes are an integral part of biological nitrogen fixation at a global scale. One of these partnerships involves the cyanobacterium UCYN ‐ A ...

Response of the unicellular diazotrophic cyanobacterium Crocosphaera watsonii to iron limitation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Iron (Fe) is widely suspected as a key controlling factor of N2 fixation due to the high Fe content of nitrogenase and photosynthetic enzymes complex, and to its low concentrations in oceanic surface seawaters.

The response of diazotrophs to nutrient amendment in the South China Sea and western North Pacific [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2022 The availability of iron (Fe) and phosphorus (P) has been shown to be a key factor regulating rates of nitrogen fixation in the western subtropical Pacific.
