Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 IntroductionVibrio is an important bacterial genus containing many pathogenic species. Although more and more Vibrio phages were isolated, the genome, ecology and evolution of Vibrio phages and their roles in bacteriophage therapy, have not been fully ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 Eukaryotic viruses and bacteriophage have been implicated in disease and bleaching in corals, but the compositional and functional diversity of these viruses in healthy and compromised hosts remains underexplored. To investigate whether viral assemblages

Sunlight-mediated inactivation of health-relevant microorganisms in water: a review of mechanisms and modeling approaches. [PDF]
, 2018 Health-relevant microorganisms present in natural surface waters and engineered treatment systems that are exposed to sunlight can be inactivated by a complex set of interacting mechanisms.

Viruses, 2014 Bacteriophage 9g was isolated from horse feces using Escherichia coli C600 as a host strain. Phage 9g has a slightly elongated capsid 62 × 76 nm in diameter and a non-contractile tail about 185 nm long. The complete genome sequence of this bacteriophage

A tail-like assembly at the portal vertex in intact herpes simplex type-1 virions [PDF]
, 2012 Herpes viruses are prevalent and well characterized human pathogens. Despite extensive study, much remains to be learned about the structure of the genome packaging and release machinery in the capsids of these large and complex double-stranded DNA ...

TEM of Bacteriophages Found in Marine Sources [PDF]
Microscopy Today, 2007 Abstract We describe here a project to illustrate the diversity and abundance of marine bacteriophages undertaken by two high school students participating in The Scripps Research Institute's High School Student Research Education Program.

Order reduction for a model of marine bacteriophage evolution [PDF]
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2017 A typical mechanistic model of viral evolution necessary includes several time scales which can differ by orders of magnitude. Such a diversity of time scales makes analysis of these models difficult. Reducing the order of a model is highly desirable when handling such a model.

Optimal foraging predicts the ecology but not the evolution of host specialization in bacteriophages. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 We explore the ability of optimal foraging theory to explain the observation among marine bacteriophages that host range appears to be negatively correlated with host abundance in the local marine environment.

454-Pyrosequencing: A Molecular Battiscope for Freshwater Viral Ecology [PDF]
, 2010 Viruses, the most abundant biological entities on the planet, are capable of infecting organisms from all three branches of life, although the majority infect bacteria where the greatest degree of cellular diversity lies.

The cost of phage resistance in a plant pathogenic bacterium is context-dependent. [PDF]
, 2015 Parasites are ubiquitous features of living systems and many parasites severely reduce the fecundity or longevity of their hosts. This parasite-imposed selection on host populations should strongly favor the evolution of host resistance, but hosts ...
