Bacteriophages in whey powder processing: Sources of contamination and control strategies

open access: yesInternational Journal of Dairy Technology, Volume 79, Issue 3, July‐September 2026.
This review examines the challenges bacteriophages pose to dairy powder production and evaluates traditional and innovative strategies to control them, emphasising the need for integrated, ongoing management to maintain efficient and high‐quality cheese and whey manufacture.

Identification and Genomic Analysis of the First Salmonella typhimurium Monophasic Variant 1,4,[5],12:i:‐ Isolate Harbouring a Chromosomally Integrated blaNDM‐5

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study reports the first clinical isolate of the monophasic variant of Salmonella typhimurium (serotype 1,4,[5],12:i:‐) ST34 harbouring a chromosomally integrated blaNDM‐5. The ~11 kb resistance region is flanked by two directly oriented IS26 elements, forming an IS26‐composite transposon.

Characterization of a Prophage-Free Derivative Strain of Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis IL1403 Reveals the Importance of Prophages for Phenotypic Plasticity of the Host

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Lactococcus lactis is a lactic acid bacterium of major importance for the dairy industry and for human health. Recent sequencing surveys of this species have provided evidence that all lactococcal genomes contain prophages and prophage-like elements. The

Cutting out the φC31 prophage [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 2011
SummaryTo establish a lysogenic lifestyle, the temperate bacteriophage φC31 integrates its genome into the chromosome of its Streptomyces host, by site‐specific recombination between attP (the attachment site in the phage DNA) and attB (the chromosomal attachment site). This reaction is promoted by a phage‐encoded serine recombinase Int.

TisB enables antibiotic tolerance in Salmonella by preventing prophage induction through ATP depletion.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens
Persisters are phenotypically antibiotic-tolerant cells which can survive antibiotic exposure without acquiring antibiotic resistance. A proposed important factor in persistence is low intracellular ATP levels, which are thought to reduce the activity of

Exploring Viral Interactions in Clavibacter Species: In Silico Analysis of Prophage Prevalence and Antiviral Defenses

open access: yesLife
Clavibacter is a phytopathogenic genus that causes severe diseases in economically important crops, yet the role of prophages in its evolution, pathogenicity, and adaptation remains poorly understood.
