Pick up an introductory biology textbook that describes bacteriophages. The presented
phage life cycle, often using phage λ as an example, will typically be differentiated into two …

Ecology is the study of the interactions between organisms and their environments. Within
our planet's varied environments there exist 1030 or more individual bacteria (Whitman et …

This monograph emphasizes the many facets of bacterial evolution as impacted by bacterial
interactions with phages, as well as, to a lesser degree, the evolutionary impact of phages …

Bacteriophages (phages) are the viruses of bacteria and the study of phage biology can be
differentiated, roughly, into molecular, environmental, evolutionary, ecological, and applied …

Bacteriophages have a long history as objects of biological study. They were discovered
about 90 years ago and have engaged biologists ever since, initially for their potential in …

From the perspective of evolutionary studies, phages offer benefits of short generation times,
small genomes, and ease of propagation. These advantages apply chiefly to the use of …

Bacteriophages, or phages, are viruses that infect bacteria and are believed to be the most
abundant and genetically diverse organisms on Earth. As such, their ecology is vast both in …

Bacteriophages (phages) are the viruses of bacteria. The impact of phages on bacterial
pathogenesis may be divided into two major themes, transduction and predation. In this …

Phage treatment of bacterial infections has offered some hope even as the crisis of
antimicrobial resistance continues to be on the rise. However, bacterial resistance to phage …

Bacteriophages, the viruses of bacteria, have been studied for over a century. They were not
only instrumental in laying the foundations of molecular biology, but they are also likely to …
