Virus isolation studies suggest short-term variations in abundance in natural cyanophage populations of the Indian Ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Cyanophage abundance has been shown to fluctuate over long timescales and with depth, but little is known about how it varies over short timescales. Previous short-term studies have relied on counting total virus numbers and therefore the phages which ...

Long‐term exposure to elevated temperature leads to altered gene expression in a common bloom‐forming cyanobacterium

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 68, Issue 12, Page 2654-2667, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Cyanobacteria have a strong potential to compete well under elevated temperatures. Understanding how they acclimate and evolve under climatic stressors can help us accurately predict their response to forecasted future conditions. However, it is unclear whether increased temperature results in microevolution and/or changes in gene expression ...

Cyanophage and algal virus

open access: yesVirologica Sinica, 2013
Recently, water blooms have become a highly serious problem in various lakes and coastal areas in China. Many efforts have been made to investigate local cyanophages, and to identify local viral strains to be used in the management and control of water blooms.

Characteristics of Wetting-Induced Bacteriophage Blooms in Biological Soil Crust. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) are photosynthetic "hot spots" in deserts and cover ∼12% of the Earth's terrestrial surface, and yet they face an uncertain future given expected shifts in rainfall events.

A Unique Set of Auxiliary Metabolic Genes Found in an Isolated Cyanophage Sheds New Light on Marine Phage-Host Interactions

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Cyanophages, viruses that infect cyanobacteria, are abundant and widely distributed in aquatic ecosystems, playing important roles in regulating the abundance, activity, diversity, and evolution of cyanobacteria.

High-level diversity of tailed phages, eukaryote-associated viruses, and virophage-like elements in the metaviromes of Antarctic soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The metaviromes of two distinct Antarctic hyperarid desert soil communities have been characterized. Hypolithic communities, cyanobacterium-dominated assemblages situated on the ventral surfaces of quartz pebbles embedded in the desert pavement, showed

To Die or Not to Die—Regulated Cell Death and Survival in Cyanobacteria

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Regulated cell death (RCD) is central to the development, integrity, and functionality of multicellular organisms. In the last decade, evidence has accumulated that RCD is a universal phenomenon in all life domains. Cyanobacteria are of specific interest

Photosensitization of Cyanophage N-1

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 1974
Summary Experiments were conducted to study the photodynamic inactivation of blue-green virus N-1 (cyanophage N-1) sensitized with acridine orange. Acridine orange at concentrations of 1 to 5 µg/ml displayed a dose related protection of free virus, when irradiated at 268 nm.

The RNA Polymerase of Marine Cyanophage Syn5 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2013
A single subunit DNA-dependent RNA polymerase was identified and purified to apparent homogeneity from cyanophage Syn5 that infects the marine cyanobacteria Synechococcus. Syn5 is homologous to bacteriophage T7 that infects Escherichia coli. Using the purified enzyme its promoter has been identified by examining transcription of segments of Syn5 DNA ...
