Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are naturally occurring phenomena, and cyanobacteria are the
most commonly occurring HABs in freshwater systems. Cyanobacteria HABs (cyanoHABs) …

Aquatic viruses are naturally present in the aquatic environment and the number of viruses
is staggering. Various multicellular organisms in aquatic ecosystems may be infected, cross …

Maximal growth rate is a basic parameter of microbial lifestyle that varies over several orders
of magnitude, with doubling times ranging from a matter of minutes to multiple days. Growth …

Bacterial communities are often exposed to temporal variations in resource availability,
which exceed bacterial generation times and thereby affect bacterial coexistence. Bacterial …

Pico-sized Synechococcus, Prochlorococcus, and eukaryotes are the dominant
photosynthetic organisms in the vast warm and oligotrophic regions of the ocean. In this …

Oligotrophic areas represent a large proportion of the oceans, wherein microbial food webs
largely determine carbon flux dynamics and biogeochemical cycles. However, little is known …

A mechanistic system dynamics description is developed of the interactions between a
single lytic-virus–phytoplankton-host couple. The model has state variables for virus …

Pico‐nanophytoplankton organisms are dominant in oceanic oligotrophic areas but their
adaptive growth rates make their contribution to the carbon cycle difficult to estimate. Here …

Eutrophication of lake and reservoir caused by cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms
(cyanoHABs) become a global ecological problem because of massive destruction of …

The picocyanobacteria genera Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus play a significant role
globally, dominating the primary production in warm and oligotrophic tropical and …
