Arctic Ice Giant Viruses May Slow Melting by Eating Algae
Giant viruses found on Arctic ice, led by Laura Perini from Aarhus University, can eat algae, potentially slowing ice melting. These viruses, discovered through DNA and mRNA analysis from various Arctic samples, are alive and interact with algae. Their complex genes enable advanced biological functions, highlighting significant growth in virology and environmental science.
