Impact of Climate Change on Cyanobacteria–Cyanophage Interactions and Their Role in Cyanobacterial Blooms in Freshwater Lakes

Cyanophages are emerging as key regulators of freshwater cyanobacterial blooms, affecting host mortality, community succession, nutrient cycling, and cyanotoxin dynamics. Understanding how climate change impacts these interactions is crucial for predicting bloom persistence and developing robust ecological frameworks to forecast how freshwater ecosystems will respond as the climate warms.
