Variations of the Virome in Raw and Treated Water: A One‐Year Follow‐Up at Six Different Drinking Water Treatment Plants

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
This paper describes monitoring of outgoing water from drinking water treatment plants, geographically spread over half of Sweden and sampled every other month for 1 year. We found differences in the virome from the different water sources from each plant as well as differences in virus size and seasonal variation, where we also could detect viruses in

Genotyping F+ RNA Coliphages by Hybridization with Oligonucleotide Probes

, 1994
F-specific RNA coliphages are prevalent in sewage and other fecal wastes of humans and animals. There are four antigenically distinct serogroups of F+ RNA coliphages and those predominating in humans (groups II and III) differ from those predominating in

Usefulness of monitoring tropical streams for male-specific RNA coliphages

, 2004
The objective of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of monitoring streams in Hawaii for FRNA coliphages as a reliable indicator of sewage contamination.

Report of the Scientific Committee of the Spanish Agency for Food Safety and Nutrition (AESAN) on the effects of climate change on the risk of transmission of foodborne pathogens

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 3, July 2025.
Abstract The Scientific Committee of the Spanish Agency for Food Safety and Nutrition (AESAN) has carried out an updated review of the scientific evidence on the influence of climate change on the transmission of foodborne pathogens. This global phenomenon represents an emerging threat to food safety and public health, since alterations in weather ...

Reverse genetics in the Arabidopsis chloroplast genome identifies rps16 as a transcribed pseudogene

The Plant Journal, Volume 122, Issue 3, May 2025.
SUMMARY The plastid (chloroplast) genomes of seed plants contain a conserved set of ribosomal protein genes. The rps16 gene represents an exception: It has been lost from the plastid genomes of gymnosperms and several lineages of angiosperms, and may have undergone pseudogenization in a few other lineages, including members of the Brassicaceae family ...

Genome Sequence and Characterization of Coliphage vB_Eco_SLUR29 [PDF]

PHAGE, 2019
Abstract Bacteriophage that infect Escherichia coli are relatively easily isolated, with greater than 600 coliphage genomes sequenced to date. Despite this there is still much to be discovered about the diversity of coliphage genomes.

Cold Surface Waters of the Sub‐Antarctic Pacific Ocean Support High Cyanophage Abundances and Infection Levels

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2025.
Here, we investigated the abundance of cyanophages and the extent to which they infect Synechococcus and Prochlorococcus, important primary producers, in the cold, low‐light, iron‐limited, sub‐Antarctic waters of the Pacific Ocean. We found that cyanophages are significant mortality agents, leading to substantial losses of these picocyanobacteria ...

Detection of Somatic and Male Specific Coliphages in Fecally Contaminated Shellfish and Harvest Waters

, 1996
Coliphages are rapidly (<12hrs) and easily detectable candidate indicators of human enteric viruses in seawater and shellfish. Furthermore male-specific (F+) RNA coliphages may be useful in differentiating human and animal fecal contamination by ...

Limitation of the Lytic Effect of Bacteriophages on Salmonella and Other Enteric Bacterial Pathogens and Approaches to Overcome

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Bacteriophages (phages) have emerged as promising agents for combating bacterial pathogens, including nontyphoidal Salmonella enterica (S. enterica), the most common foodborne pathogen worldwide. The emergence of antimicrobial‐resistant (AMR) S. enterica poses a severe healthcare issue.

Impact of flocculated and softened particles on UV254 inactivation of indigenous spores

AWWA Water Science, Volume 6, Issue 6, November/December 2024.
Abstract US regulatory ultraviolet (UV) disinfection credit is typically granted when turbidity is ≤1 NTU. However, studies show turbidity does not always correlate well with UV dose responses. This study examined the impact of worst‐case high turbidity scenarios at drinking water treatment plants on UV254 inactivation of indigenous spores from ...
