Fig. 5: Dynamic interactions between alphaproteobacterial viruses and hosts.
From: Lake salinization on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau alters viral community composition and lifestyles

a, b Correlation of the relative abundance of Alphaproteobacterial viruses and Alphaproteobacteria and salinity. c Correlation of the relative abundance of Alphaproteobacterial viruses and Alphaproteobacteria. The statistical test used was two-tailed. d Shifts in the relative abundance of viruses infecting Roseovarius and Roseovarius in the communities. The yellow bars represent the relative abundance of Roseovarius within the Alphaproteobacteria. The yellow lines represent changes in the relative abundance of Roseovarius in the prokaryotic community. The blue lines represent changes in the relative abundance of viruses infecting Roseovarius in the prokaryotic community. e Genome maps of the identified viruses of Roseovarius.
