Researchers at the Leibniz Institute DSMZ-German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures have made significant discoveries regarding the cyanosphere, a complex community of cyanobacteria.
Their high-resolution investigations have led to the identification of a previously unknown myxobacterium that is capable of performing photosynthesis.
This finding may provide new insights into the interactions among microorganisms within these communities, although further research is needed to fully understand the implications.
