A novel freshwater cyanophage vB_MelS-Me-ZS1 infecting bloom-forming cyanobacterium Microcystis elabens.

This study isolated and characterized a novel broad-host-range Microcystis phage Me-ZS1 presenting a genetically distinct clade of freshwater cyanophage. The features of cyanophage Me-ZS1 provide a potential solution to the loss caused by cyanobacterial bloom. PMID: 33025507 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
