It was further confirmed the stimulatory effect of M. loti-derived eCA on microalgae, highlighting key carbon metabolic pathways, including the Calvin cycle, TCA cycle and antioxidant defense response.
Algae and bacteria are frequently observed to form mutualisms for the exchange of a range of nutrients. We have developed a stable co-culture in which the cobalamin (vitamin B12)-requiring unicellular green alga Lobomonas rostrata can grow stably in the absence of this organic micronutrient with the...
