• Emerging interaction patterns in the Emiliania huxleyi-EhV system 

      Ruiz Martinez, Eliana; Oosterhof, Monique; Sandaa, Ruth-Anne; Larsen, Aud; Pagarete, António (Journal article, 2017-03-22)
      Viruses are thought to be fundamental in driving microbial diversity in the oceanic planktonic realm. That role and associated emerging infection patterns remain particularly elusive for eukaryotic phytoplankton and their ...
    • Seasonal diversity and dynamics of haptophytes in the Skagerrak, Norway, explored by high-throughput sequencing 

      Egge, Elianne Sirnæs; Johannessen, Torill Vik; Andersen, Tom; Eikrem, Wenche; Bittner, Lucie; Larsen, Aud; Sandaa, Ruth-Anne; Edvardsen, Bente (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-06)
      Microalgae in the division Haptophyta play key roles in the marine ecosystem and in global biogeochemical processes. Despite their ecological importance, knowledge on seasonal dynamics, community composition and abundance ...
    • Seasonal dynamics of haptophytes and dsDNA algal viruses suggest complex virus-host relationship 

      Johannessen, Torill Vik; Larsen, Aud; Bratbak, Gunnar; Pagarete, António; Edvardsen, Bente; Egge, Elianne Dunthorn; Sandaa, Ruth-Anne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-04-20)
      Viruses influence the ecology and diversity of phytoplankton in the ocean. Most studies of phytoplankton host–virus interactions have focused on bloom-forming species like Emiliania huxleyi or Phaeocystis spp. The role of ...
