📣 A new preprint by noashima.bsky.social! 📣 How does ocean warming affect viral infection? Infection of algae by a giant virus is arrested intracellularly under elevated temperature, with the late replication stage blocked. Infection can later resume, revealing a reversible arrest state 🌊

In this study, we used #metabolomics to trace #viral infections in #coccolithophore blooms across the Atlantic analyzing data from four cruises including the #TARA Breizh and #TARA Gayoso expeditions.

The core-resistance genes could serve as potential markers to detect resistant cells during algal blooms. A better understanding of algal resistance mechanisms is key to unraveling the host-virus arms race in the ocean and bloom dynamics. 🌊 >>

🌊Paper announcement! 📣
Viral infections rewire the metabolic makeup of their host and thereby create distinct chemical signatures. Can we use metabolic biomarkers to diagnose infections of algal blooms in the ocean?
Well, take a look at our new article led by Conny Kuhlisch in @pnas.org

📣 We are excited to share our latest paper, led by @taliashaler.bsky.social! We explore the transcriptional basis of #microalgae resistance to #viral_infection and identified a core group of resistance-related genes. >>

Ocean warming is expected to reshape microbial interactions and community composition, with profound consequences for marine biogeochemical cycles. Host virus dynamics are central to these processes, ...
Algal blooms and their demise by viruses drive global-scale ecological processes in the ocean. These blooms form the foundation of marine food webs, regulate microbial communities, and shape biogeoc...
