Cyanobacterial Heterocysts
• Anabaena differentiates into specialized cells called heterocysts.
•
• - Allow it to fix nitrogen anaerobically while maintaining oxygenic photosynthesis
Figure 4.27
Fruiting Bodies• Myxococcus xanthus uses gliding motility.• - Starvation triggers the aggregation of
100,000 cells, which form a fruiting body.
