  7. Mar 16, 2020 · Bacteriophages (and viruses in general) have a considerable influence on the ecology and the biogeochemical cycles of the ocean [ 1, 3 ]. Viral-induced mortality can influence the flux of nutrients in microbial food-webs through the release of “new” dissolved organic matter (DOM) [ 4 ].

  8. Marine Roseobacter are abundant, ubiquitous and diverse in the ocean and play active roles in global biogeochemical cycling, especially the sulfur cycle. Currently, 32 bacteriophages that infect multiple lineages of roseobacters have been isolated and sequenced.
