Gunnera

Gunnera manicata is one of 40-50 species in the Gunnera genus.[1].

Cyanobacteria

Cyanobacteria are the largest phylum of Gram-positive prokaryotes on earth. They are known for their ability to obtain energy through photosynthesis [1]. The ability to produce oxygen is believed to be an attribute to their success in evolution because the environment in which they were developing was otherwise occupied by anaerobic bacteria [2].

Many species live in large colonies of cells ranging from hundreds to thousands of cells in a single colony [3]. These colonies are able to form filaments, sheets, or hollow spheres [4]. These colonies, when too large, can form harmful algal blooms that can cause great harm to the aquatic ecosystem and the surrounding area it is in [5].

Cyanobacteria are wide spread around the world, contributing to major global biogeochemical cycles like cellular death [6].

Gunnera and Cyanobacteria symbiosis

Include some current research, with a second image.

Conclusion

Overall text length (all text sections) should be at least 1,000 words (before counting references), with at least 2 images.

Include at least 5 references under References section.
