The free-living wellspring of symbiotic nitrogen fixation in Bradyrhizobium

Lu Ling, Sishuo Wang, Jinjin Tao, Marjorie Pervent, Kaitlyn E. Ho, Coline Sciallano, Alicia Camuel, Nico P. Nouwen, Éric Giraud, Haiwei Luo

This paper identifies free-living Bradyrhizobium as the ancestral state of nitrogen fixation, showing that symbiotic nitrogen fixation evolved multiple times independently from free-living ancestors.
