If scientists can figure out how to genetically engineer it, this single-celled organism’s natural quirks could become supercharged into a low-waste carbon capture system. Cyanobacteria like ...

There’s no question we’ll keep finding really, really interesting biology in these vents. I can’t stress enough that this was ...

The modified cyanobacteria demonstrated ethanol production rates between 0.24 and 3.8 g/L over a period of 7–10 days. By ...

Chonkus, a mutant strain of cyanobacteria seen here in a microscopy image, contains large white spots that appear to be carbon-dense granules. Those granules may explain why the cyanobacterium grows ...

Researchers have discovered a special strain of marine cyanobacteria that consume and store carbon dioxide at a rapid rate.

Microalgae, including cyanobacteria and green algae ... which accounts for more than 40% of the global net photosynthetic carbon fixation. With the intensification of global warming and the proposal ...

He won the top prize, which funded his early forays into applying his tools to cyanobacteria to investigate their potential to help fix and sequester carbon. Meanwhile, Tierney, who was then a ...

Four autotrophic carbon-fixation pathways were already known ... which is present in plants, algae, cyanobacteria and proteobacteria. A second autotrophic pathway (Arnon–Buchanan cycle) uses ...

UTEX 3222 produced larger colonies than other known fast-growing cyanobacteria strains, and its individual cells were larger as well – thus the moniker Chonkus. It also grew to higher density than ...

The white dots are thought to store carbon. Credit: Wyss Institute at Harvard University Researchers have discovered a special strain of marine cyanobacteria that consume and store carbon dioxide ...
