A bacteriophage switches between lytic and lysogenic life cycles. The AimR-AimP-AimX communication system is responsible for phage lysis-lysogeny decisions during the infection of Bacillus subtilis.

Well-temperate phage: optimal bet-hedging against local environmental collapses [PDF]
Upon infection of their bacterial hosts temperate phages must chose between lysogenic and lytic developmental strategies. Here we apply the game-theoretic bet-hedging strategy introduced by Kelly to derive the optimal lysogenic fraction of the total ...

The occurrence of cyanobacterial blooms in summer are frequently accompanied by the succession of phytoplankton communities in freshwater. However, little is known regarding the roles of viruses in the succession, such as in huge reservoirs.

Calculating Biological Behaviors of Epigenetic States in Phage lambda Life Cycle [PDF]
Gene regulatory network of lambda phage is one the best studied model systems in molecular biology. More 50 years of experimental study has provided a tremendous amount of data at all levels: physics, chemistry, DNA, protein, and function.

Phage–host interactions likely play a major role in the composition and functioning of many microbiomes, yet remain poorly understood. Here, we employed single cell genomics to investigate phage–host interactions in a diffuse-flow, low-temperature ...

The influence of the accessory genome on bacterial pathogen evolution [PDF]
Bacterial pathogens exhibit significant variation in their genomic content of virulence factors. This reflects the abundance of strategies pathogens evolved to infect host organisms by suppressing host immunity.

Lysogeny in Leuconostoc oenos [PDF]
Thirty strains of Leuconostoc oenos were exposed to mitomycin C to induce lysogenic bacteriophages. Lysis curves typical for lysogenic strains were obtained with 19 strains. Indicator strans were found for 17 of these phages. Five were characterized by electron microscopy, lytic spectrum, molecular masses of the proteins, sequencing of five N-terminal ...

Bacteriophages are the most abundant organisms on the planet and both lytic and temperate phages play key roles as shapers of ecosystems and drivers of bacterial evolution.
