Distribution and Evolution of Nitrogen Fixation Genes in the Phylum Bacteroidetes

Diazotrophs had not previously been identified among bacterial species in the phylum Bacteroidetes until the rapid expansion of bacterial genome sequences, which revealed the presence of nitrogen fixation (nif) genes in this phylum. We herein determined the draft genome sequences of Bacteroides gram...
