Transduction of bacteriophage lambda by bacteriophage T1 [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 1979
When bacteriophage T1 was grown on bacteriophage lambda-lysogenic cells, phenotypically mixed particles were formed which had the serum sensitivity, host range, and density of T1 but which gave rise to lambda phage. T1 packaged lambda genomes more efficiently both when the length of the prophage was less than that of wild-type lambda and when the host ...

Social Bacteriophages [PDF]

Microorganisms, 2020
Despite their simplicity, viruses can display social-like interactions such as cooperation, communication, and cheating. Focusing on bacteriophages, here we review features including viral product sharing, cooperative evasion of antiviral defenses, prudent host exploitation, superinfection exclusion, and inter-phage peptide-mediated signaling. We argue

Bacteriophage Therapy [PDF]

Annual Review of Microbiology, 2001
▪ Abstract  In 1917, bacteriophages were recognized as epizootic infections of bacteria and were almost immediately deployed for antibacterial therapy and prophylaxis. The early trials of bacteriophage therapy for infectious diseases were confounded, however, because the biological nature of bacteriophage was poorly understood.

Occurrence and diversity of clinically important Vibrio species in the aquatic environments of Georgia

Frontiers in Public Health, 2015
Among the more than 70 different Vibrio species inhabiting marine, estuarine, and freshwater ecosystems, 12 are recognized as human pathogens. The warm subtropical climate of the Black Sea coastal area and inland regions of Georgia likely provides a ...

Characterization of a Bacteriophage GEC_vB_Bfr_UZM3 Active against Bacteroides fragilis

Viruses, 2023
Bacteroides fragilis is a commensal gut bacterium that is associated with a number of blood and tissue infections. It has not yet been recognized as one of the drug-resistant human pathogens, but cases of the refractory infections, caused by strains that

Bacteriophages and their genomes [PDF]

Current Opinion in Virology, 2011
Bacteriophages occupy a unique position in biology, representing an absolute majority of all organisms in the biosphere. Because their genomes are relatively small, elucidating the genetic diversity of the phage population, deciphering their origins, and identifying the evolutionary mechanisms that shape the population would seem readily feasible.

Campylobacter bacteriophages and bacteriophage therapy. [PDF]

Journal of applied microbiology, 2011
Members of the genus Campylobacter are frequently responsible for human enteric disease with occasionally very serious outcomes. Much of this disease burden is thought to arise from consumption of contaminated poultry products. More than 80% of poultry in the UK harbour Campylobacter as a part of their intestinal flora.

Molecular Diversity and Predictability of Vibrio parahaemolyticus along the Georgian coastal zone of the Black Sea

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a leading cause of seafood-related gastroenteritis and is also an autochthonous member of marine and estuarine environments worldwide. One hundred seventy strains of V.

Microbial Diversity and Phage–Host Interactions in the Georgian Coastal Area of the Black Sea Revealed by Whole Genome Metagenomic Sequencing

Marine Drugs, 2020
Viruses have the greatest abundance and highest genetic diversity in marine ecosystems. The interactions between viruses and their hosts is one of the hot spots of marine ecology.
