Trichodesmium is unusual among marine microbes because it both "breathes" carbon dioxide like plants, while also taking nitrogen gas from the air and "fixing" it ...
How marine microbe Trichodesmium fixes nitrogen and carbon dioxide apparently at the same time has long puzzled scientists. Using NanoSIMS imaging technology, this study supports the theory ...
