Viral impacts on bacterial communities in Arctic cryoconite

Viral impacts on bacterial communities in Arctic cryoconite

The surfaces of glaciers are extreme ecosystems dominated by microbial communities. Viruses are found in abundance here, with a high frequency of bacteria displaying visible virus infection. In this study, viral and bacterial production was measured in Arctic cryoconite holes to address the control...
