TAXONOMIC DIFFERENCE IN MARINE BLOOM-FORMING PHYTOPLANKTONIC SPECIES AFFECTS THE DYNAMICS OF BOTH BLOOM-RESPONDING PROKARYOTES AND PROKARYOTIC VIRUSES

Taxonomic difference in marine bloom-forming phytoplanktonic species affects the dynamics of both bloom-responding prokaryotes and prokaryotic viruses

ABSTRACTThe production of dissolved organic matter during phytoplankton blooms and consumption by heterotrophic prokaryotes promote marine carbon biogeochemical cycling.Although prokaryotic viruses presumably affect this process, their dynamics during blooms are not fully understood.Here, we investigated the effects of taxonomic difference in bloom
