Tracing the active genetic diversity of Microcystis and Microcystis phage through a temporal survey of Taihu.

Harmful algal blooms are commonly thought to be dominated by a single genus, but they are not homogenous communities. Current approaches, both molecular and culture-based, often overlook fine-scale variations in community composition that can influence bloom dynamics. We combined homology-based sear...
