Mapping the transcriptional landscape of algal resistance to viral infection reveals a core expression program
Algal blooms and their demise by viruses drive global-scale ecological processes in the ocean. These blooms form the foundation of marine food webs, regulate microbial communities, and shape biogeoc...

📣A new preprint by Talia Shaler! 📣
How do populations develop resistance to viral infections?
We mapped the transcriptomic landscape of algal resistance to lytic viral infection and identified a unique set of resistance-related genes expressed in those cells >>
