Growth phase-specific gene regulation and algicidal interactions between a new A. macleodii strain and the model diatom T. pseudonana
David Wiener, Zinka Bartolek, Riley Dunklin, E. Virginia Armbrust
This study shows how the growth phase of a diatom affects the algicidal activity of a bacterial strain and reveals gene expression shifts in the bacteria in response to host state and environmental cues.
