Characterization and Genome Sequence of Marine Alteromonas gracilis Phage PB15 Isolated from the Yellow Sea, China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A novel marine Alteromonas gracilis siphovirus, phage PB15, was isolated from the surface water of the Yellow Sea in August 2015. It has a head diameter of 58 ± 5 nm head and a contractile tail approximately 105 ± 10 nm in length, and overall the ...

Diversity and Ecological Potentials of Marine Viruses Inhabiting Continental Shelf Seas

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 1, 5 January 2026.
To the best of the knowledge, this study provides the largest viral genome dataset from a continental shelf sea. It reveals that over half of vOTUs are novel, highlighting the remarkable viral novelty in the eastern continental shelf seas of China (ECSSC).

Genomes of the T4-related bacteriophages as windows on microbial genome evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The T4-related bacteriophages are a group of bacterial viruses that share morphological similarities and genetic homologies with the well-studied Escherichia coli phage T4, but that diverge from T4 and each other by a number of genetically determined ...

Metagenomic approaches to assess bacteriophages in various environmental niches [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Bacteriophages are ubiquitous and numerous parasites of bacteria and play a critical evolutionary role in virtually every ecosystem, yet our understanding of the extent of the diversity and role of phages remains inadequate for many ecological niches ...

Isolation and Characterization of a Virulent Bacteriophage AB1 of Acinetobacter baumannii

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2010
Background Acinetobacter baumannii is an emerging nosocomial pathogen worldwide with increasing prevalence of multi-drug and pan-drug resistance. A. baumannii exists widely in natural environment, especially in health care settings, and has been shown ...

Bacteriophages as a model for studying carbon regulation in aquatic system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The interconversion of carbon in organic, inorganic and refractory carbon is still beyond the grasp of present environmentalists. The bacteria and their phages, being the most abundant constituents of the aquatic environment, represent an ideal model for

Relative Contributions of Halobacteriovorax and Bacteriophage to Bacterial Cell Death under Various Environmental Conditions

open access: yesmBio, 2018
The role of protists and bacteriophages in bacterial predation in the microbial food web has been well studied. There is mounting evidence that Bdellovibrio and like organisms (BALOs) also contribute to bacterial mortality and, in some cases, more so ...

Physiology and ecology of bacteriophages of the marine bacterium Beneckea natriegens: salinity [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1976
The effects of variation in ionic levels on the stability and replication of two bacteriophages (nt-1 and nt-6) host specific for the marine bacterium Beneckea natriegens were examined. Monovalent cations influenced the adsorption of the nt-1 but not the nt-6 phage; however, one-step growth studies showed that NaCl was required for replication of both ...
