The paper investigates how iron limitation affects carbon flow to bacteria by altering exometabolite consumption in a diatom-bacterial community.

The paper identifies viral shunt activity as a driver of seasonal subsurface oxygen maxima in the Sargasso Sea by linking elevated cyanophage activity and bacterial catabolism.

The paper samples and analyzes viruses in the Bermuda Atlantic Time Series to reveal population-level dynamics and functional differences, but not community-level changes over short timeframes.

This study identifies a bacterium that contributes to diatom population collapse in outdoor algal ponds and explores its interactions with other microbes.

The paper shows that in the phosphorus-limited Sargasso Sea, different microbes uptake phosphorus at different times of day, supporting temporal niche partitioning.

The paper expands the global RNA virome by five-fold, identifying new clades of RNA bacteriophages and revealing novel virus-host interactions.
