Tailed bacteriophages with genomes larger than 200 kbp are classified as Jumbo phages,
and are rarely isolated by conventional methods. These phages are designated “jumbo” …

Currently, the bacterial resistance, especially to most commonly used antibiotics has proved
to be a severe therapeutic problem. Nosocomial and community-acquired infections are …

Bacteriophages are ubiquitous viral predators that have primarily been studied using fast-
growing laboratory cultures of their bacterial hosts. However, microbial life in nature is …

The bacteriophages have been explored at a huge scale as a model system for their
applications in many biological-related fields. Jumbo phages with a large genome size from …

Phages are the most abundant biological entity on Earth. There are many variants in phage
virion sizes, morphology, and genome sizes. Large virion sized phages, with genome sizes …

Bacteriophage therapy is currently resurging as a potential complement/alternative to
antibiotic treatment. However, preclinical evaluation lacks streamlined approaches. We here …

Twenty two distinct bacteriophages were isolated from sewage water from five locations in
the city of Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire over a two-year period, using a collection of Pseudomonas …

The paper covers the history of the discovery and description of phiKZ, the first known giant
bacteriophage active on Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It also describes its unique features …

Summary Pseudomonas virus vB_PaeM_PA5oct is proposed as a model jumbo
bacteriophage to investigate phage‐bacteria interactions and is a candidate for phage …

The goal of the study was to determine the relationship between in vitro/in vivo efficacy of
environmental Pseudomonas phages and certain phenotypical properties of Pseudomonas …
