LM of Nostoc sp

Light micrograph of Nostoc sp. a blue-green nitrogen-fixing algae which grows in the absence of combined nitrogen and converts gaseous nitrogen into a usable form. Useful in enriching the soil, for instance in rice culture, it is a filamentous organism which forms chains of individual creatures. Aggregations of Nostoc form mucilaginous masses, usually seen resting on the soil. It is also being investigated for possible applications in biotechnology. Phase contrast micrograph. Magnification: X`160 at 35mm size, X 320 at 6x7cm size

Alga Algae Algal Cyanobacteria Nitrogen Fixing Light Micrograph


EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of Nostoc sp, a blue-green nitrogen-fixing algae. The image reveals a close-up view of this filamentous organism, which forms chains of individual creatures. As an essential player in enriching soil fertility, particularly in rice culture, Nostoc sp has garnered significant attention from scientists and botanists alike. In its quest to convert gaseous nitrogen into a usable form, Nostoc sp demonstrates its remarkable ability to thrive even in the absence of combined nitrogen. Aggregations of these fascinating organisms can often be found resting on the soil's surface, forming mucilaginous masses that add an intriguing visual element to their ecological role. Beyond its significance in agriculture and nature's delicate balance, Nostoc sp is also being explored for potential applications in biotechnology. Researchers are delving deeper into understanding the unique properties and capabilities possessed by this cyanobacteria species. Captured using phase contrast microscopy techniques at varying magnifications (X160 at 35mm size and X320 at 6x7cm size), this light micrograph offers us a glimpse into the mesmerizing world of nitrogen-fixing algae. This stunning print from Science Photo Library serves as a testament to both the aesthetic allure and scientific importance found within our natural environment.
