Our study explores coexistence regimes of a virus and a zooplankton with a single phytoplankton for different model structures (left panel). The inclusion of an infected class and a resistant class is sufficient to generate coexistence regimes (middle panel). Using algebraic solutions, we optimise our model emphasising the importance of including viral

Bacteriophages isolated from Lake Michigan demonstrate broad host-range across several bacterial phyla [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The study of bacteriophages continues to generate key information about microbial interactions in the environment. Many phenotypic characteristics of bacteriophages cannot be examined by sequencing alone, further highlighting the necessity ...

Microcystis aeruginosa forms massive blooms in eutrophic freshwaters, where it is constantly exposed to lytic cyanophages. Unlike other marine cyanobacteria, M.

Prochlorococcus cyanobacteria grow in diurnal rhythms driven by diel cycles. Their ecology depends on light, nutrients, and top-down mortality processes, including lysis by viruses.

Despite their abundance and ecological importance, little is known about the diversity of marine viruses, in part because most cannot be cultured in the laboratory.

Distinct Phage‐Encoded Enzymes for Substitution of Deoxythymidine by Deoxyuridine in Phage Genomes
Distinct enzymes including dCTP deaminases (Dcds), dTMP phosphatases (Dtms), and dTTP pyrophosphatases (Dtt) are found to be responsible for dU‐DNA biosynthesis in the phages PBS1, DSS3_VP1, and PhiR1‐37. Both PhiR1‐37‐derived and synthetic dU‐DNA are resistant to cleavage by restriction enzymes and Cas12a nuclease targeting dT‐containing sites.

Enhanced‐resolution flow cytometry combined with phenotypic diversity analysis reveals four consistent viral subclusters and a fifth restricted to the Yellow Sea across the Northwest Pacific. These results identify a cryptic diversity hotspot in the Luzon Strait and demonstrate how environmental and biological gradients shape large‐scale patterns in ...

A novel uncultured marine cyanophage lineage with lysogenic potential linked to a putative marine Synechococcus 'relic' prophage [PDF]
Marine cyanobacteria are important contributors to primary production in the ocean and their viruses (cyanophages) affect the ocean microbial communities.

Putative prophages related to lytic tailless marine dsDNA phage PM2 are widespread in the genomes of aquatic bacteria [PDF]
Background The origin and evolution of viruses is currently a heavily discussed issue. One element in this discussion is the innate viral "self" concept, which suggests that viral structures and functions can be divided into two categories.
