Heterocyst Development and Diazotrophic Growth of <i>Anabaena variabilis</i> under Different Nitrogen Availability

Nitrogen is globally limiting primary production in the ocean, but some species of cyanobacteria can carry out nitrogen (N) fixation using specialized cells known as heterocysts. However, the effect of N sources and their availability on heterocyst development is not yet fully understood. This study...
