Marine Conservation: Moving Beyond Malthus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1906
SummaryA new study has shown that maximum overfishing of coral reefs occurs among countries at intermediate levels of socio-economic development; can managers and policy makers help countries dependent on these ecosystems avoid the resulting poverty ...

Estimating the Importance of Viral Contributions to Soil Carbon Dynamics

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 30, Issue 10, October 2024.
Written Summary: Viruses are ubiquitous in soils and impact global carbon cycling through infection of microbial hosts. Using existing data from the literature, we generate a global budget of the carbon potentially released from microbial biomass by viral infections in soils.

Marine cyanophages: tinkering with the electron transport chain [PDF]

open access: yesThe ISME Journal, 2011
Several studies have demonstrated the acquisition of microbial genes by different marine cyanophages, including core photosystem-I (PSI) and photosystem-II (PSII) genes, as well as many other genes of the electron transport chain (Mann et al., 2003; Lindell et al., 2004; Millard et al., 2004; Sullivan et al., 2005; Sharon et al., 2009; Alperovitch et ...

The CP12 protein family: a thioredoxin-mediated metabolic switch? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
CP12 is a small, redox-sensitive protein, representatives of which are found in most photosynthetic organisms, including cyanobacteria, diatoms, red and green algae, and higher plants.

vAMPirus: A versatile amplicon processing and analysis program for studying viruses

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 24, Issue 6, August 2024.
Abstract Amplicon sequencing is an effective and increasingly applied method for studying viral communities in the environment. Here, we present vAMPirus, a user‐friendly, comprehensive, and versatile DNA and RNA virus amplicon sequence analysis program, designed to support investigators in exploring virus amplicon sequencing data and running informed,

Cyanophage-encoded lipid desaturases: oceanic distribution, diversity and function [PDF]

open access: yesThe ISME Journal, 2017
Abstract Cyanobacteria are among the most abundant photosynthetic organisms in the oceans; viruses infecting cyanobacteria (cyanophages) can alter cyanobacterial populations, and therefore affect the local food web and global biochemical cycles.

Identification of cyanobacteria overwintering cells and environmental conditions causing growth: Application for preventative management

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 5, Issue 2, April/June 2024.
A strategic literature review was conducted to evaluate the influence of overwintering cyanobacteria to form harmful algal blooms (HABs). Some overwintering cells remain in the sediment during non‐ideal growth conditions and provide an inoculum for HABs during the growing season, perpetuating the cyanobacterial life cycle.

CyanoNews (Vol. 4, No. 1, February 1988) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
CyanoNews was a newsletter that served the cyanobacteriological community from 1985 to 2003, with content provided by readers (sort of a blog before there were blogs). The newsletter reported new findings from the lab, summaries of recent meetings (often

Architecturally diverse proteins converge on an analogous mechanism to inactivate Uracil-DNA glycosylase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) compromises the replication strategies of diverse viruses from unrelated lineages. Virally encoded proteins therefore exist to limit, inhibit or target UDG activity for proteolysis.

Tracking putative Microcystis viruses and virus-host associations across distinct phases of a Microcystis-dominated bloom

open access: yesmSystems
Viruses significantly impact microbial community composition and function. Yet their role in the fate of freshwater cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cHABs), an increasing threat to freshwater systems, remains poorly understood.
