Abstract excerpt
The cyanobacterium Nostoc muscorum is able to utilized proline and glycine-betaine as a nitrogen source under unstressed growth conditions. This cyanobacterium when grow in modified Chu No. 10 medium (without Na+) unable to utilized proline and glycine-betaine as a nitrogen source. Spontaneously occurring mutant clones defective in Na+ transport (Na+-R) were isolated and analyzed for proline and glycine-betaine...
