The growing human population is currently facing an unprecedented challenge on global
food production and sustainability. Despite recognizing poultry as one of the most successful …

In the last decade, powerful high-throughput sequencing approaches have emerged to
analyse microbial transcriptomes at a global scale. However, to date, applications of these …

As interest in the therapeutic and biotechnological potentials of bacteriophages has grown,
so has value in understanding their basic biology. However, detailed knowledge of infection …

Campylobacter jejuni is a frequent foodborne pathogen of humans. As C. jejuni infections

Little is known about the gene expression program during the transition from lysogenic to
lytic cycles of temperate bacteriophages in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. To investigate this …

Phage-host interactions are commonly evaluated by culture-based methods. However,
these techniques are very laborious and time-consuming. Therefore, other time-efficient, not …

Pseudomonas virus PA5oct has a large, linear, double-stranded DNA genome (287,182 bp)
