| Abstrakt: | When viruses infect microbial cells, their phenotypes depend on the host's genotype and on the environmental conditions. Here we describe such an effect in laboratory strains of the chlorovirus PBCV-1 and its algal host Chlorella variabilis. We studied the growth of six virus isolates, and found that the mean lysis time was 1.34±0.05 times longer at multiplicity of particles (MOP) 10 than at MOP 1. We could not detect any associated changes in burst size. This is a novel plastic trait for chloroviruses, and we hypothesize that it is caused by our specific laboratory algae. |
