Single-cell-resolved natural giant virus infections reveal conserved protist immunity

Amir Fromm, Tomás Alarcón-Schumacher, Christopher M. Bellas…·Assaf Vardi

The paper identifies active giant-virus infections in protists and shows conserved antiviral defenses and potential viral counter-defense mechanisms.

Reversible inhibition of viral life cycle in response to elevated temperature in a bloom-forming alga

Noa Shima, Talia S. Shaler, Nir Joffe…·Assaf Vardi

The paper shows that elevated temperature inhibits viral life cycle stages in Gephyrocapsa huxleyi but allows reversibility under prolonged heatwave conditions.
