Soil Viruses Are Underexplored Players in Ecosystem Carbon Processing

Soil Viruses Are Underexplored Players in Ecosystem Carbon Processing

ABSTRACT Rapidly thawing permafrost harbors ∼30 to 50% of global soil carbon, and the fate of this carbon remains unknown. Microorganisms will play a central role in its fate, and their viruses could modulate that impact via induced mortality and metabolic controls. Because of the challenges of reco...
