Conveying biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) to photosynthetic species may be the next agricultural revolution, yet poses major engineering challenges. Liu et al. created a diazotrophic strain of a previously non-nitrogen-fixing species, the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, and uncovered critical aspects of nitrogen fixation in an oxygenic species.
