Payet, Jérôme P., McMinds, Ryan, Burkepile, Deron E., and Thurber, Rebecca L. Vega

Abstract:

Despite nutrient-depleted conditions, coral reef waters harbor abundant and diverse microbes; as major agents of microbial mortality, viruses are likely to influence microbial processes in these ecosystems. However, little is known about marine viruses in these rapidly changing ecosystems. Herewe examined spatial and short-term temporal variability in marine viral abundance...
