Hidden diversity and potential ecological function of phosphorus acquisition genes in widespread terrestrial bacteriophages
Abstract Phosphorus (P) limitation of ecosystem processes is widespread in terrestrial habitats. While a few auxiliary metabolic genes (AMGs) in bacteriophages from aquatic habitats are reported to have the potential to enhance P-acquisition ability of their hosts, little is known about the diversit...
