HHQ can inhibit E. huxleyi virus-induced mortality. The abundance (cells per milliliter) of E. huxleyi over time (hours) after being exposed to either the vehicle control (DMSO), HHQ (100 ng ml−1), EhV 207, or HHQ plus EhV 207 (MOI = 80) was determined. (a) HHQ and the virus were added together. (b) HHQ was added at T0, and the virus was added after 72 h. (c) Virus was added at T0, and HHQ addition was delayed for 24 h (n = 3 for each treatment in each experiment). Means ± standard deviations are shown.
