Abstract
Evidence for the establishment of lysogeny in Plectonema boryanum by LPP-1D and LPP-2 phycoviruses after treatment of the alga with chloramphenicol is presented. Mitomycin C induction and viral neutralization were applied to confirm lysogeny. Infection of antibiotic-treated cells by LPP-1 virus failed to establish lysogeny indicating that LPP-1 is a virulent phycovirus while LPP-1D and LPP-2 are temperate viruses.
