Virus satellites drive viral evolution and ecology [PDF]
Virus satellites are widespread subcellular entities, present both in eukaryotic and in prokaryotic cells. Their modus vivendi involves parasitism of the life cycle of their inducing helper viruses, which assures their transmission to a new host. However,

Development and Application of a Prophage Integrase Typing Scheme for Group B Streptococcus
Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is a gram-positive pathogen mainly affecting humans, cattle, and fishes. Mobile genetic elements play an important role in the evolution of GBS, its adaptation to host species and niches, and its pathogenicity.

Bacteriophage typing ofstaphylococcus aureus [PDF]
The routine methods for propagation of staphylococcal typing bacteriophages, and for their use in identifying strains of staphylococci, are described.Most of the phages can be propagated in fluid media as well as on agar, and for some glucose-peptone-water is a better medium than nutrient or Todd-Hewitt broth.Many phage filtrates derived from broth or ...

Bacteriophage typing scheme for Salmonella infantis [PDF]
A bacteriophage typing system is described for Salmonella infantis. Nine phages were selected, of which three were isolated from sewage and six from human feces. All except 7 of the 546 strains collected between 1974 and 1978 could be classified into 23 different phage types.

Advances in Molecular Serotyping and Subtyping of Escherichia coli
E. coli plays an important role as a member of the gut microbiota; however, pathogenic strains also exist, including various diarrheagenic E. coli pathotypes and extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli that cause illness outside of the GI-tract. E. coli have
