Under nitrogen deprivation, filaments of the cyanobacterium Anabaena undergo a process
of development, resulting in a one-dimensional pattern of nitrogen-fixing heterocysts …

The filamentous cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 forms nitrogen-fixing
heterocysts in a periodic pattern in response to combined-nitrogen limitation in the …

In response to a lack of environmental combined nitrogen, the filamentous cyanobacterium
Anabaena sp. strain PCC 7120 differentiates nitrogen-fixing heterocyst cells in a periodic …

Cyanobacteria, formerly called blue‐green algae, are abundant bacteria that carry out green
plant photosynthesis, fixing CO2 and generating O2. Many species can also fix N2 when …

In this review we consider Reaction–Diffusion as the archetype of a model in developmental
biology. We consider its history in relation to experimental work since it was first proposed in …

Heterocysts are specialized cells that filamentous cyanobacteria differentiate for the fixation
of atmospheric nitrogen when other nitrogen sources are not available. Heterocyst …

In the model cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. PCC 7120, cells called heterocysts that are
specialized in the fixation of atmospheric nitrogen differentiate from vegetative cells of the …

Many filamentous cyanobacteria respond to the external cue of nitrogen scarcity by the
differentiation of heterocysts, cells specialized in the fixation of atmospheric nitrogen in oxic …

Cyanobacteria are phototrophic bacteria carrying out oxygen-producing photosynthesis.
Indeed, cyanobacteria were the inventors of oxygenic photosynthesis carried out by …

Differentiation commitment is one of the most complex mechanisms to study in biological
science. One of the model systems used for understanding differentiation complexity is …
