We observed that the maize pathogenic fungus Ustilago maydis grew in nitrogen (N)-free media at a rate similar to that observed in media containing ammonium nitrate, suggesting that it was able to fix atmospheric N2. Because only prokaryotic organisms have the capacity to reduce N2, we entertained the possibility that U. maydis was associated with...
