Precise microbiome engineering using natural and synthetic bacteriophages targeting an artificial bacterial consortium [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyIn natural microbiomes, microorganisms interact with each other and exhibit diverse functions. Microbiome engineering, which enables bacterial knockdown, is a promising method to elucidate the functions of targeted bacteria in microbiomes.

Temperate Bacteriophages—The Powerful Indirect Modulators of Eukaryotic Cells and Immune Functions
Viruses, 2021 Bacteriophages are natural biological entities that limit the growth and amplification of bacteria. They are important stimulators of evolutionary variability in bacteria, and currently are considered a weapon against antibiotic resistance of bacteria ...

An Efficient, Counter-Selection-Based Method for Prophage Curing in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Strains
Viruses, 2021 Prophages are bacteriophages in the lysogenic state, where the viral genome is inserted within the bacterial chromosome. They contribute to strain genetic variability and can influence bacterial phenotypes. Prophages are highly abundant among the strains

Replication Region Analysis Reveals Non-lambdoid Shiga Toxin Converting Bacteriophages
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Shiga toxin is the major virulence factor of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC), and the gene encoding it is carried within the genome of Shiga toxin-converting phages (Stx phages).

Characterization of prophages in bacterial genomes from the honey bee (Apis mellifera) gut microbiome [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 The gut of the European honey bee (Apis mellifera) possesses a relatively simple bacterial community, but little is known about its community of prophages (temperate bacteriophages integrated into the bacterial genome).

Lysogenicity in Xanthomonas pruni [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1955 An apparently lysogenic strain of Xanthomonas pruni was isolated. A series of experiments was performed to determine whether the isolate was lysogenic or whether it was a case of pseudolysogenesis. The results indicated that it was a true case of lysogenesis. The phage released by the lysogenic organism differed from the one used in its selection.
