Filamentous virus-like particles are present in coral dinoflagellates across genera and ocean basins
Filamentous viruses are hypothesized to play a role in stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) through infection of the endosymbiotic dinoflagellat…
Species-specific responses of marine bacteria to environmental perturbation
Environmental perturbations shape the structure and function of microbial communities. Oil spills are a major perturbation and resolving spills oft…
Common loss of far-red light photoacclimation in cyanobacteria from hot and cold deserts: a case study in the Chroococcidiopsidales
Deserts represent an extreme challenge for photosynthetic life. Despite their aridity, they are often inhabited by diverse microscopic communities …
Dynamic and intricate regulation by the Csr sRNAs in the Arctic Pseudoalteromonas fuliginea
