A temperate siphovirus, phiCDKH01, was obtained from a clinical isolate of Clostridioides
difficile. The phage genome is a 45,089-bp linear double-stranded DNA molecule with an …

Research on individual viruses and phages, as well as viral populations (viromes), is greatly
expanding. Phages and viromes are increasingly suspected to have numerous impacts on …

Bacteriophage associated with the human gut microbiome are likely to have an important
impact on community structure and function, and provide a wealth of biotechnological …

Although the prokaryotic communities of the rumen microbiome are being uncovered
through genome sequencing, little is known about the resident viral populations. Whilst …

Bacteriophages (phages) are estimated to be the most abundant and diverse entities in the
biosphere harboring vast amounts of novel genetic information. Despite the genetic diversity …

Bacteriophages (phages) are viruses that infect and kill bacteria. Hence, they play an
important role in medicine, ecology, evolution, food production, and many other …

CrAss-like phages play an important role in maintaining ecological balance in the human
intestinal microbiome. However, their genetic diversity and lifestyle are still insufficiently …

The human gut is a complex environment that contains a multitude of microorganisms that
are collectively termed the microbiome. Multiple factors have a role to play in driving the …

Bacterial viruses (bacteriophages, phages) of the gut have increasingly become a focus in
microbiome studies, with an understanding that they are likely key players in health and …

A high temperature-adapted bacteriophage, vB_PtoS_NIIg3. 2 (NIIg3. 2), was isolated in
Lithuania from compost heaps using Parageobacillus toebii strain NIIg-3 as a host for phage …
