Linking light-dependent life history traits with population dynamics for Prochlorococcus and cyanophage
D. Demory, R. Liu, Y. Chen…·J. S. Weitz
The paper develops a light-driven population model to examine how light-dependent life history traits of Prochlorococcus and cyanophage influence population dynamics, finding that light-dependent adsorption improves model fits but lysis saturation at high virus-to-cell ratios also plays a key role.
