[Chemotaxis of P. haloplanktis towards exudates of Synechoccocus] - Chemotaxis of P. haloplanktis towards exudates of phage-infected and control Synechoccocus (VIC project) (Collaborative Research: Viral induced chemotaxis mediating cross-trophic microbial interactions and carbon flux)

Two filtrate sets were collected, each spanning 6 time points (named T1 -> T6), with the initial assays split into 4 biological replicates (named A,B,C,D). The two treatments were: 1) A control treatment (named "Control", or shortened to "C") 2) A phage-infected treatment (named "Phage", or shortened to "P"), where host Synechococcus were infected with the T-4 like Myovirus S-SSM5, with data collected over the pre-lysis cycle.

These treatments are fully described in: doi.org/10.1038/s43705-022-00169-6. At both time points, statistically significant preference was measured towards the phage-infected exudates by analyzing the cell distribution across a microfluidic channel.
