Diversity and expression of nitrogen fixation genes in bacterial symbionts of marine sponges.

Environmental microbiology - 1 Nov 2008

Mohamed Naglaa M, Colman Albert S, Tal Yossi, Hill Russell T

Abstract excerpt

Marine sponges contain complex assemblages of bacterial symbionts, the roles of which remain largely unknown. We identified diverse bacterial nifH genes within sponges and found that nifH genes are expressed in sponges. This is the first demonstration of the expression of any protein-coding bacte...
