Efficient Broad-Spectrum Cyanophage Function Module Mining [PDF]
MicroorganismsCyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (CyanoHABs) cause health and environmental effects worldwide. Cyanophage is a virus that exclusively infects cyanobacteria. Using cyanophages to control blooms is the latest biological control method.

Characterisation of host growth after infection with a broad-range freshwater cyanopodophage. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Freshwater cyanophages are poorly characterised in comparison to their marine counterparts, however, the level of genetic diversity that exists in freshwater cyanophage communities is likely to exceed that found in marine environments, due to the habitat

Associations between picocyanobacterial ecotypes and cyanophage host genes across ocean basins and depth [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Background Cyanophages, viruses that infect cyanobacteria, are globally abundant in the ocean’s euphotic zone and are a potentially important cause of mortality for marine picocyanobacteria.

Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Cyanophage Encoding Multiple Auxiliary Metabolic Genes
Viruses, 2022 As significant drivers of cyanobacteria mortality, cyanophages have been known to regulate the population dynamics, metabolic activities, and community structure of this most important marine autotrophic picoplankton and, therefore, influence the global ...
