The endosymbiont of Epithemia clementina is specialized for nitrogen fixation within a photosynthetic eukaryote

Epithemia spp. diatoms contain obligate, nitrogen-fixing endosymbionts, or “diazoplasts”, derived from cyanobacteria. These algae are a rare example of photosynthetic eukaryotes that have successfully coupled oxygenic photosynthesis with oxygen-sensitive nitrogenase activity. Here, we report a newly...
