The Host R‐M Systems Change the Host Range of Staphylococcus Phage EBHT [PDF]
MicrobiologyOpenTherapeutically utilized phages should optimally be produced in defined bacterial strains that are free of prophages and virulence factors. However, phage–host interactions in these production strains may be very different from clinical strains. Here, we

Characterisation of host growth after infection with a broad-range freshwater cyanopodophage [PDF]
, 2014 Freshwater cyanophages are poorly characterised in comparison to their marine counterparts, however, the level of genetic diversity that exists in freshwater cyanophage communities is likely to exceed that found in marine environments, due to the habitat

Bacteriophages and Their Host Range in Multidrug-Resistant Bacterial Disease Treatment
Pharmaceuticals, 2023 The rapid emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria in recent times has prompted the search for new and more potent antibiotics. Bacteriophages (commonly known as phages) are viruses that target and infect their bacterial hosts.

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2021 Parasites and other symbionts deeply influence host organisms, and no living organism can be considered to have evolved independent of its symbionts. The first step towards understanding symbiotic influences upon host organisms is a strong supporting ...

Estimating parasite host range [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2017 Estimating the number of host species that a parasite can infect (i.e. host range) provides key insights into the evolution of host specialism and is a central concept in disease ecology. Host range is rarely estimated in real systems, however, because variation in species relative abundance and the detection of rare species makes it challenging to ...

Broad host range plasmids [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2013 Plasmids are and will remain important cloning vehicles for biotechnology. They have also been associated with the spread of a number of diseases and therefore are a subject of environmental concern. With the advent of sequencing technologies, the database of plasmids is increasing.

Insects, 2021 The gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar, is a notorious forest defoliator, and various pathogens are known to act as natural regulators of its population density. As a widespread herbivore with a broad range of inhabited areas and host plants, it is potentially
