The genome of the Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis temperate phage EV3 [PDF]
BMC Research Notes, 2013 Bacteriophages infection modulates microbial consortia and transduction is one of the most important mechanism involved in the bacterial evolution. However, phage contamination brings food fermentations to a halt causing economic setbacks. The number of phage genome sequences of lactic acid bacteria especially of lactobacilli is still limited.

The Genome of the Novel Phage Rtp, with a Rosette-Like Tail Tip, IsHomologous to the Genome of Phage T1 [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2006 ABSTRACTAnewEscherichia coliphage, named Rtp, was isolated and shown to be closely related to phage T1. Electron microscopy revealed that phage Rtp has a morphologically unique tail tip consisting of four leaf-like structures arranged in a rosette, whereas phage T1 has thinner, flexible leaves that thicken toward the ends.

Programming virulent bacteriophages by developing a multiplex genome engineering method
mBioThe use of virulent bacteriophages (phages) against pathogenic bacteria has recently attracted considerable interest. The limitations of naturally isolated phages have promoted the development of genome engineering methods to optimize their functions ...

Physical Model of the Immune Response of Bacteria Against Bacteriophage Through the Adaptive CRISPR-Cas Immune System [PDF]
, 2013 Bacteria and archaea have evolved an adaptive, heritable immune system that recognizes and protects against viruses or plasmids. This system, known as the CRISPR-Cas system, allows the host to recognize and incorporate short foreign DNA or RNA sequences,
