• Grazing on Marine Viruses and Its Biogeochemical Implications 

      Mayers, Kyle; Kuhlisch, Constanze; Basso, Jonelle T. R.; Saltvedt, Marius Rydningen; Buchan, Alison; Sandaa, Ruth-Anne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Viruses are the most abundant biological entities in the ocean and show great diversity in terms of size, host specificity, and infection cycle. Lytic viruses induce host cell lysis to release their progeny and thereby ...
    • Viral infection switches the balance between bacterial and eukaryotic recyclers of organic matter during coccolithophore blooms
