Abstract In this paper marine viruses were studied from the Ionian, Libyan and Aegean Sea and from the entire water column (2 to 4000m) during the mixing and stratification periods. All measurements were conducted using Flow Cytometer. Viral abundance fell within the limits of an oligotrophic system and there was an increase of it during September compared to March. Viral abundance was positively correlated with prokaryotic abundance and size. Open Sea stations showed similar patterns in terms of viral abundance, while the North Aegean Sea stations presented different patterns and increased viral abundance due to Black Sea Water inflows. Virus to Prokaryotic Ratio decreased from the epipelagic to the bathypelagic depth zone during March whereas the opposite pattern appeared during September because of the increase of viral abundance in the meso- and bathypelagic zones. During September the contribution of Medium and High Fluorescence Viruses increased compared to March.
