    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterocyst

    Heterocysts or heterocytes are specialized nitrogen-fixing cells formed during nitrogen starvation by some filamentous cyanobacteria, such as Nostoc, Cylindrospermum, and Anabaena. [1] They fix nitrogen from dinitrogen (N 2) in the air using the enzyme nitrogenase, in order to provide the cells in the filament with nitrogen for biosynthesis. [2]

  9. Anthoceros - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthoceros

    Anthoceros species are host to species of Nostoc, a symbiotic relationship in which Nostoc provides nitrogen to its host through cells known as heterocysts, and which are able to carry out photosynthesis. [3] The Nostoc colonies are present on the lower ventral surface. They often grow in slime pores, mucilaginous groups of decomposed cells ...
