MPN (Most Probable Number) assay for infectivity of algal viruses Resource Report Resource Website |
Amy Zimmerman | DOI:10.17504/protocols.io.gunbwve | VERVE Net, Worden Lab | Purpose: To quantify infectious viruses and evaluate the infectivity of a viral sample.50 µL of serially-diluted (10-3 to 10-10) virus sample is added to 150 µL of exponentially growing host cells in triplicate 96-well microplates and incubated at normal growth conditions for ~2 weeks. Cell lysis is assessed every few days qualitatively by visual inspection and quantitatively by measuring optical density on a microplate reader. The MPN of infective viruses in each concentrate is estimated from the proportion of virus-positive (i.e., lysed) wells using the MPN_ver4.xls Excel spreadsheet from Jarvis, B., Wilrich, C., and P.-T. Wilrich (2010), Journal of Applied Microbiology 109 (2010), 1660 – 1667. Percent infectivity is then calculated by comparing the MPN-estimated abundance of infective viruses to the abundance of virus-like particles (VLPs) determined by flow cytometry analysis. | Worden Lab, Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute | 3 | 2017 | Amy Zimmerman 2017.

Train for a One-Way Mission to Mars Resource Report Resource Website |
Edmond Dion | DOI:10.17504/protocols.io.etqbemw | VERVE Net | This mock protocol is a fun description of the steps one might undertake to train for a one-way mission to the planet Mars. The One-Way mission concept is gaining popularity due to it's simpler approach and lower cost. Rather than expend effort to bring back the Marstronauts, the plan calls for leaving them there and ultimately colonizing the red planet. | 1 | 2016 | Edmond Dion 2016.

Positive and Negative Staining of Viruses on TEM Grids Resource Report Resource Website |
Jennifer Brum | DOI:10.17504/protocols.io.day2fv | VERVE Net, Sullivan Lab | Purpose: This protocol describes how to negatively or positively stain viruses that have been deposited onto TEM grids so that they can be imaged using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Positive staining stains the virus itself such that the virus is dark against a lighter background (Figure 1A). This is the easiest staining to do and yields results suitable for analyzing the morphological diversity of viruses from aquatic samples. Negative staining relies on some stain remaining around the edges of a virus such that the details of the virus are clearly defined (Figure 1B). Negative staining is more difficult and is used to obtain publication quality micrographs of viruses.Note: To deposit viruses onto the grids prior to staining, use either the “Adsorbing Viruses onto TEM Grids” protocol or the “Quantitatively Depositing Viruses onto TEM Grids” protocol. Grids should be stained immediately after depositing viruses onto them. | Matthew Sullivan Lab, University of Arizona/Ohio State University | 1 | 2016 | Jennifer Brum 2016.

Bacteriophage isolation by spotting on target host cells Resource Report Resource Website |
Mathias Middelboe, Amy M. Chan, and Sif K. Bertelsen | DOI:10.17504/protocols.io.dps5nd | VERVE Net, Suttle Laboratory of Marine Molecular Microbiology and Virology | Phage lysis of host bacteria can be visualized by plaque formation on lawns of host cells in soft agar overlayed on agar plates (Adams, 1959; Sambrook et al. 1989). This principle can be used for the detection and subsequent isolation of specific lytic phages in environmental samples (e.g., Carlson 2005). Spotting environmental samples on lawns of a target host cell would thus reveal the presence of a lytic phage for that particular host cell in the given sample. | Manual of Aquatic Viral Ecology, Manual of Aquatic Viral Ecology, Manual of Aquatic Viral Ecology | http://www.aslo.org/books/mave/MAVE_118.pdf | 1 | 2016 | Mathias Middelboe, Amy M.

Extracting nucleic acids from viruses on a filter Resource Report Resource Website |
Grieg F. Steward and Alexander I. Culley | DOI:10.17504/protocols.io.dsm6c5 | VERVE Net | This protocol is a minor modification of that reported by Culley and Steward (2007). As the starting point for this protocol, we assume that viruses have been collected on an aluminum oxide 0.02-µm syringe-tip filter (Anotop, Whatman), but other filters capable of capturing viruses may be substituted.This is a protocol from: Steward, G.

Propagation of marine eukaryotic viruses (Prasinoviruses) Resource Report Resource Website |
Amy Zimmerman | DOI:10.17504/protocols.io.gujbwun | VERVE Net, Worden Lab | Purpose: To reproducibly generate fresh preparations of virus for independent experiments.Fresh virus sample for an experiment is generated by a primary infection of exponentially growing host cells from a master stock of virus. The infected host is allowed to lyse until the culture is cleared. The lysate is filtered to remove any large cellular debris, then the viral-size fraction is concentrated from the filtered lysate and washed with buffer using a centrifugal concentrator. The viral concentrate is stored at 4°C protected from light and should be used for an experiment within 1-2 days. On the day of (or the day before) the experiment, an MPN assay should be set up to assess infectivity of the fresh viral concentrate. | Worden Lab, Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute | 2 | 2017 | Amy Zimmerman 2017.

Nutrient deplete/replete algal culture for elemental analysis Resource Report Resource Website |
Amy Zimmerman, Susanne Wilken | DOI:10.17504/protocols.io.gukbwuw | VERVE Net, Worden Lab | Purpose: To evaluate the influence of nutrient availability on cellular elemental composition (quotas and stoichiometry) in marine picoeukaryotes.Elemental quotas and ratios are assessed under nutrient replete and deplete conditions at the same time to minimize potential variation between experiments. Cells from an exponentially growing culture are concentrated by centrifugation, washed and re-suspended in a small volume of nutrient deplete media. These concentrated cells are used to inoculate triplicate replete and deplete culture flasks at a starting density corresponding to early-exponential growth. Culture growth is monitored daily. When the mean growth rate of the nutrient deplete treatment is half or less of the replete treatment (GRDEP/GRREP | Worden Lab, Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute, Worden Lab, Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute | 2 | 2017 | Amy Zimmerman, Susanne Wilken 2017.

Obtaining targeted metagenomes from uncultivated environmental Synechococcus using flow cytometry-based viral tagging Resource Report Resource Website |
Li Deng, Bonnie T. Poulos, Matthew B. Sullivan | DOI:10.17504/protocols.io.c6zzf5 | VERVE Net, Sullivan Lab | AbstractOcean viruses are abundant, ubiquitous, and play important roles in global biogeochemical cycles through mortality, horizontal gene transfer and manipulation of host metabolism. However, the ability to link viruses to their hosts in a high-throughput manner bottlenecks our ability to understand virus-host interactions in complex communities. Here, we present viral tagging (VT), a method that combines mixtures of isotope labeled host cells and fluorescent viruses with flow cytometry. In a single experiment, we can screen 107 uncultivated ocean viruses with a single strain of Synechococcus. These viruses can then be sequenced to quantitatively link objectivelydefined environmental viral populations, and their genomes, to their hosts. | Matthew Sullivan Lab, University of Arizona, Ohio State University, Matthew Sullivan Lab, University of Arizona, Ohio State University, Matthew Sullivan Lab, University of Arizona, Ohio State University | 1 | 2016 | Li Deng, Bonnie T.
