Epaulard

The largest member of the dolphin family, orcas reach up to 9 meters and 6 tonnes and are found in every ocean from Arctic to Antarctic. Apex predators living in matrilineal pods with distinct dialects, hunting strategies, and cultural traditions that differ between populations. Some populations specialize in fish, others in marine mammals. No natural predators; orcas sit at the top of every marine food chain they inhabit.

Rhizobium multihospitium is a nitrogen-fixing alphaproteobacterium in the family Rhizobiaceae with an unusually broad host range, capable of nodulating multiple legume species. Its name refers to its ability to form symbioses with many host plants. It has been isolated from root nodules in China and contributes to biological nitrogen fixation in diverse agricultural and natural legume ecosystems.
