The paper shows that algal betaine triggers bacterial hydrogen peroxide production, leading to algal death in marine interactions.

This study identifies intracellular carbon storage via PHB granules as a key mechanism for starvation survival in marine bacteria, with additional strategies also contributing to persistence.

This study shows that algal glycine betaine stimulates bacterial cobalamin production, creating a feedback loop that influences marine microbial interactions and productivity.

This study shows selenium reduces oxidative stress in Emiliania huxleyi algae, preventing death from Phaeobacter inhibens infection.

This study examines how the production of tropodithietic acid (TDA) affects microbial physiology and interactions across varying culture complexities, showing gene deletion impacts co-cultures but not tri-cultures with algal hosts.

This study identifies Bmt as a methionine synthase that enables marine bacteria to shorten their lag phase by directly demethylating DMSP and betaine without requiring cofactors.

The paper shows that increased nutrient levels boost bacterial EPS production, contributing to algal-bacterial aggregation in marine environments.

This study shows algal exudates enhance conjugation in Roseobacters by promoting bacterial attachment, facilitating horizontal gene transfer in marine environments.

This study shows Emiliania huxleyi produces vitamin D2 and D3 in response to UV radiation and regulates protective mechanisms transcriptionally when exposed to vitamin D, enhancing photosynthesis and reducing oxidative stress.

This study identifies a shared algal-bacterial extracellular matrix formed through bacterial exopolysaccharide production, enhancing aggregation and colonization in marine environments.
