This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. Viruses are now unarguably considered essential components of marine ecosystems with regard to their natural abundance and their ecological implications. The interaction of viruses with microaggregates is, however, poorly documented despite the critical implications of microaggregates for the ocean biogeochemistry and the marine optical properties. Thus, the main goal of this project is to shed light on the interactions between viruses and microaggregates. One of the major studies of this project focuses on the impact of viral lysis on the dynamics of microaggregates. This study involves the use of virus  host model systems isolated from the SIO-pier. The expected results will provide novel insights into our understanding of viral ecology and to a larger extend into the functioning of the ocean.

这个子项目是许多利用资源的研究子项目之一 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目的主要支持 而子项目的主要调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其它NIH来源。 列出的子项目总成本可能 代表子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 而不是由NCRR赠款提供给子项目或子项目工作人员的直接资金。 病毒现在被认为是海洋生态系统的重要组成部分， 考虑到它们的自然丰度及其生态影响。病毒的相互作用 然而，尽管微聚集体具有关键影响，但有关微聚集体的记录却很少 微团聚体的海洋生物地球化学和海洋光学特性。因此 该项目的主要目标是揭示病毒之间的相互作用， 微团聚体该项目的主要研究之一是病毒裂解的影响 微聚集体的动力学。这项研究涉及使用病毒  主体模型 与SIO码头隔离的系统。预期的结果将为我们提供新的见解， 病毒生态学的理解，并在更大程度上扩展到海洋的功能。
