Novel lineages of single-stranded DNA phages that coevolved with the symbiotic bacteria Rhizobium
This study describes novel single-stranded DNA phages isolated from common bean agriculture soils by infection of the nitrogen-fixing symbiotic bacteria Rhizobium etli and R. phaseoli. A total of 29 phages analyzed have 4.3–6 kb genomes in size and GC 59–

Isolation and characterisation of Klebsiella phages for phage therapy [PDF]
Abstract Klebsiella is a clinically important pathogen causing a variety of antimicrobial resistant infections in both community and nosocomial settings, particularly pneumonia, urinary tract infection and sepsis. Bacteriophage (phage) therapy is being considered as a primary option for the treatment

Investigation of the Phageome and Prophages in French Cider, a Fermented Beverage
Phageomes are known to play a key role in the functioning of their associated microbial communities. The phageomes of fermented foods have not been studied thoroughly in fermented foods yet, and even less in fermented beverages.

Assessment of viral community functional potential from viral metagenomes may be hampered by contamination with cellular sequences [PDF]
Although the importance of viruses in natural ecosystems is widely acknowledged, the functional potential of viral communities is yet to be determined. Viral genomes are traditionally believed to carry only those genes that are directly pertinent to the ...
