Characteristics of Wetting-Induced Bacteriophage Blooms in Biological Soil Crust

Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) are photosynthetic “hot spots” in deserts and cover ∼12% of the Earth’s terrestrial surface, and yet they face an uncertain future given expected shifts in rainfall events. Laboratory wetting of biocrust communities is known to cause a bloom of Firmicutes which rap...
