Studies of bacteriophages induced from Streptococcus cremoris strain R1 : is R1 a double Lysogen? : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Genetics at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
Early studies on Streptococcus cremoris strain R₁ suggested that it was polylysogenic. Later, it was reported that its induced lysates contained bacteriophages (phages) of two types which were believed to differ in their morphology, buoyant densities ...

Fixed points and limit cycles in the population dynamics of lysogenic viruses and their hosts
Starting with stochastic rate equations for the fundamental interactions between microbes and their viruses, we derive a mean field theory for the population dynamics of microbe-virus systems, including the effects of lysogeny. In the absence of lysogeny,

Causes and consequences of bacterial local adaptation via MGEs in the plant microbiome
Summary Adaptations that enable plant‐associated bacteria to fill disparate niches comprise a critical component of microbial diversity. Genes that confer locally adaptive bacterial traits, ranging from heavy metal resistance to pathogen or symbiont infectivity, often reside within mobile genetic elements (MGEs) that can move between genomes.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of the sporulation factor SpoIIAA in its native and phosphorylated forms [PDF]
Sporulation in Bacillus begins with an asymmetric cell division producing two progeny with identical chromosomes but different developmental fates. As such, it is a simple example of cellular differentiation.

Nucleotide sequence and mutational analysis of an immunity repressor gene from Bacillus subtilis temperate phage ϕ105 [PDF]
We have identified and sequenced a bacteriophage phi 105 gene encoding an immunity repressor, the first to be characterized from a temperate phage infecting a Gram-positive host.

Transcription Analysis of Streptococcus thermophilus Phages in the Lysogenic State [PDF]
The transcription of prophage genes was studied in two lysogenic Streptococcus thermophilus cells by Northern blot and primer-extension experiments. In the lysogen containing the cos-site phage Sfi21 only two gene regions of the prophage were transcribed.

Hydrogen Evolution via Oxygen Tolerant [NiFe]‐Hydrogenase Immobilized on TiO2 Nanotubes
Hydrogenase‐immobilized TiO2 nanotube was developed by the electropolymerization of polypyrrole and hydrogenase drop‐casting, and cathodic current is reported. Hydrogenase was extracted from E. coli, which can be more oxygen tolerant than the previous hydrogenase electrode.

Commensal E. coli Stx2 lysogens produce high levels of phages after spontaneous prophage induction
Enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) is a food-borne pathogen that causes disease ranging from uncomplicated diarrhea to life-threatening hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) and nervous system complications.

Viral Transmission Dynamics at Single-Cell Resolution Reveal Transiently Immune Subpopulations Caused by a Carrier State Association. [PDF]
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

Superinfection of Lysogenic Strains of Salmonella typhimurium Q1: Prophage Substitution and Double Lysogenization [PDF]
SUMMARY: Strains of Salmonella typhimurium Q1, lysogenized with type A phages, were superinfected with the heterologous free phages of the same group. This produced lysis (productive or vegetative development) and prophage change (either prophage substitution or double lysogenization) in a constant pattern.
