Nitrogen fixation by a marine non-heterocystous cyanobacterium requires a heterotrophic bacterial consort.

abstract：:Upon entry of Francisella tularensis to macrophages, the Francisella-containing phagosome (FCP) is trafficked into an acidified late endosome-like phagosome with limited fusion to the lysosomes followed by rapid escape into the cytosol where the organism replicates. Although the Francisella Pathogenicity Island (FPI),...
