Temperate infection in a virus–host system previously known for virulent dynamics

Temperate infection in a virus–host system previously known for virulent dynamics

The blooming alga Emiliania huxleyi and its viruses are a model for density-dependent virulent dynamics. However, Knowles et al. show that this host–virus system exhibits temperate dynamics at natural host densities, in a manner dependent on host physiology.
