Trichodesmium

picture info	Trichodesmium ''Trichodesmium'', also called sea sawdust, is a genus of Filamentation, filamentous cyanobacteria. They are found in nutrient poor tropical and subtropical ocean waters (particularly around Australia and in the Red Sea, where they were first described by Captain Cook). ''Trichodesmium'' is a diazotroph; that is, it nitrogen fixation, fixes atmospheric nitrogen into ammonium, a nutrient used by other organisms. ''Trichodesmium'' is thought to fix nitrogen on such a scale that it accounts for almost half of the nitrogen fixation in marine systems globally. ''Trichodesmium'' is the only known diazotroph able to nitrogen fixation, fix nitrogen in daylight under aerobic conditions without the use of heterocysts. ''Trichodesmium'' can live as individual filaments, with tens to hundreds of cells strung together, or in colonies consisting of tens to hundreds of filaments clustered together. These colonies are visible to the naked eye and sometimes form blooms, which can be extensive on s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
