Virus infection of bacteria involved in nitrogen processing has been observed for decades (Adolph and Haselkom, 1973 Khudyakov, 1977 Mendzhul et al., 1991 Safferman et al., 1972), however it is only recently that the impHcated in releasing fixed nitrogen (Hewson et al., 2004 Ohki, 1999 Ohki and Fujita, 1996 Suttle,... 

Seawater DOM has numerous sources and sinks and a range of potential reactions. Sources of the sub-micron components include exudation from phytoplankton, microbial degradation of bioparticles, animal wastes (excretion), viral infection of bacteria, sloppy feeding by zooplankton and other animals, and input of dissolved molecules from rivers and surface sediments. Removal mechanisms include photodegradation, sorption to sinking particles, and microbial utilization. Tritiated thymidine and leucine uptake experiments indicate that up to half of the carbon formed by photosynthesis is shunted via dissolved organic molecule intermediates into bacteria. 

An inflammation of the mucous membrane of the large intestine resulting from infection of bacteria, protozoa, or virus, and characterized by the appearance of blood and mucus in the stools, severe diarrhea, cramps, and fever.
