The Role of Temperate Phages in Bacterial Pathogenicity

Microorganisms, 2023
Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria and archaea and are classified as virulent or temperate phages based on their life cycles. A temperate phage, also known as a lysogenic phage, integrates its genomes into host bacterial chromosomes as a ...
