Metabolic Adaptation, a Specialized Leaf Organ Structure and Vascular Responses to Diurnal N(2) Fixation by Nostoc azollae Sustain the Astonishing Productivity of Azolla Ferns without Nitrogen Fertilizer

Sustainable agriculture demands reduced input of man-made nitrogen (N) fertilizer, yet N(2) fixation limits the productivity of crops with heterotrophic diazotrophic bacterial symbionts. We investigated floating ferns from the genus Azolla that host phototrophic diazotrophic Nostoc azollae in leaf p...
