Species code:	ANAVT
Taxonomy:	Bacteria; Cyanobacteria; Nostocales; Nostocaceae; Anabaena (TaxID: 240292) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description:	Anabaena variabilis ATCC 29413 is a filamentous heterocyst-forming cyanobacterium that fixes nitrogen and CO2 using the energy of sunlight via oxygen-evolving plant-type photosynthesis. It has also been studied extensively for the production of hydrogen using solar energy. It has a complex life cycle that includes different types of differentiated cells: heterocysts for nitrogen fixation, and akinetes (spores) for survival. It has been studied extensively for over 40 years and is the strain of choice for many laboratories throughout the world.
