Abstract

Phytoplankton and the viruses that infect them are locked in an evolutionary arms race, the nature of which is presently being revealed. A new study shows that cyanophage-mediated inhibition of CO₂ fixation enables the phages to recruit photosynthetically formed redox and ATP to fulfill their nucleotide and metabolic demand.
