Phylogeny of the NifHDK protein concatamer. Different molybdenum, vanadium and iron nitrogenases from different bacteria are represented. Concatenations of paralogous proteins involved in the synthesis of chlorophyll/bacteriochlorophyll (Bch/ChlLNB) were used to root the phylogeny. The novel nitrogenase from the freshwater Vulcanococcus limneticus sp. nov. is red coloured. Cyanobacterial NifHDK are represented with a star symbol
