Scientists Discover First Nitrogen-Fixing Organelle
April 17, 2024
After years of work, an international team found evidence that a once-independent nitrogen-fixing microbe has become a permanent resident within algae cells
In two recent papers, an international team of scientists describe the first known nitrogen-fixing organelle within a eukaryotic cell. The organelle is the fourth example in history of primary endosymbiosis – the process by which a prokaryotic cell is engulfed by a eukaryotic cell and evolves beyond symbiosis into an organelle.
Which is about the same event that I posted about. So what is your problem?
