Summary 1. Viral and microbial loop dynamics were investigated over an annual cycle in three contrasting saline Antarctic lakes – Highway Lake (salinity 4‰), Pendant Lake (salinity 19‰) and Ace Lake, a meromictic system (with a mixolimnion salinity of 18‰) in order to assess the importance of viruse...
