Recent studies suggest that particle-associated non-cyanobacterial diazotrophs (NCDs) could contribute significantly to N fixation contrary to the paradigm of diazotrophy as primarily driven by cyanobacterial genera. We examine the community composition of NCDs associated with suspended, slow, and fast-sinking particles in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre. Suspended and slow-sinking particles showed a higher abundance of cyanobacterial diazotrophs than fast-sinking particles, while fast-sinking particles showed a higher diversity of NCDs including Marinobacter, Oceanobacter and Pseudomonas. Using single-cell mass spectrometry we find that Gammaproteobacteria N fixation rates were higher on suspended and slow-sinking particles (up to 67 ± 48.54 fmol N cell⁻¹ d⁻¹), while putative NCDs' rates were highest on fast-sinking particles (121 ± 22.02 fmol N cell⁻¹ d⁻¹). These rates are comparable to previous diazotrophic cyanobacteria observations, suggesting that particle-associated NCDs may be important contributors to pelagic N fixation.
