Although photosynthesis should supply the plant with sufficient energy for nitrogen fixation, this energy expenditure might impact the growth rate or yield of crops. To assess the potential consequences of nitrogen-fixing staple crops, we will use <strong>metabolic models</strong> to predict effects on growth rate, and <strong>economic models</strong> to link crop yields to farmers’ budgets and profits. <br> <br> Our project <strong>lays the foundation for the transplantation of nitroplast</strong> into their algal hosts, allowing for the creation of nitrogen-fixing eukaryote strains. The emergence of nitrogen-fixing plants could lead to a significant drop in fertilizer demand, and consequently in both carbon emissions and nitrogen pollution. <br> <br> </p> +<img src="https://static.igem.wiki/teams/5054/gif-transparent.gif" alt="endosymbiosis" width="300"> <!-- <div class="image-text-wrapper">
