Microbes drive ecosystems and their viruses manipulate these processes, yet the
importance of tidal functioning on the estuarine viruses and microbes remains poorly …

Particle sinking is an important process in the ocean, influencing the biogeochemical cycle
and driving the long-term preservation of carbon into the deep sea via the biological pump …

Hadal ocean biosphere, that is, the deepest part of the world's oceans, harbors a unique
microbial community, suggesting a potential uncovered co-occurring virioplankton …

Marine viruses are major drivers of global biogeochemical cycles and energy fluxes, yet the
importance of viral impacts on the succession and diversity of the bacterial community …

Viruses saturate environments throughout the world and play key roles in microbial food
webs, yet how viral activities affect dissolved organic matter (DOM) processing in natural …

Mountain and polar glaciers cover 10% of the Earth's surface and are typically extreme
environments that challenge life of all forms. Viruses are abundant and active in supraglacial …

Heterotrophic bacteria play a vital role in the marine carbon cycle and viruses are an
important regulator of bacterial metabolism and community composition. It remains unclear …

Estuaries are important ecosystems providing irreplaceable services for humankind and, in
turn, are extensively influenced by human activities and climate changes. Microbial …

The reduction approach to assess virus production and the prokaryotic mortality by viral lysis
stops new infection by reducing total virus abundance (and thus virus–host contacts). This …

Viruses wield significant influence over microbial communities and ecosystem function in
marine environments. However, the selection of viral life strategies and their impacts on …
