Specific Integration of Temperate Phage Decreases the Pathogenicity of Host Bacteria
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020 Temperate phages are considered as natural vectors for gene transmission among bacteria due to the ability to integrate their genomes into a host chromosome, therefore, affect the fitness and phenotype of host bacteria. Many virulence genes of pathogenic

Viral Transmission Dynamics at Single-Cell Resolution Reveal Transiently Immune Subpopulations Caused by a Carrier State Association. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2015 Monitoring the complex transmission dynamics of a bacterial virus (temperate phage P22) throughout a population of its host (Salmonella Typhimurium) at single cell resolution revealed the unexpected existence of a transiently immune subpopulation of host

Bacterial resistance to temperate phage is influenced by the frequency of lysogenic establishment [PDF]
iScienceSummary: Temperate phages can shape bacterial community dynamics and evolution through lytic and lysogenic life cycles. In response, bacteria that resist phage infection can emerge.

Stability and gene strand bias of lambda prophages and chromosome organization in Escherichia coli [PDF]
mBioTemperate phage-mediated horizontal gene transfer is a potent driver of genetic diversity in the evolution of bacteria. Most lambdoid prophages in Escherichia coli are integrated into the chromosome with the same orientation with respect to the direction
