Marine bacteria play vital roles in every niche of the ocean, from small-scale symbioses to large-scale productivity and the regulation of Earth’s climate. Recent advances in molecular tools now allow us to probe the genetic potential of entire microbial communities. The next step is linking these diverse communities to the...

We conducted 11 independent short-term carbon dioxide (CO₂) manipulation experiments using colonies of
the filamentous cyanobacteria Trichodesmium isolated on three cruises in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre
(NPSG). Dinitrogen (N₂) and carbon (C) fixation rates of these colonies were compared over CO₂ conditions
ranging from ~ 18 Pa (equivalent to...
