We commonly acknowledge that bacterial viruses (phages) shape the composition and
evolution of bacterial communities in nature and therefore have important roles in ecosystem …

Bacteriophages (phages) are often described as obligate predators of their bacterial hosts,
and phage predation is one of the leading forces controlling the density and distribution of …

Phage therapy is a medical form of biological control of bacterial infections, one that uses
naturally occurring viruses, called bacteriophages or phages, as antibacterial agents …

The ecological dynamics underlying the coexistence between antagonistic populations of
bacteria and their viruses, bacteriophages (phages), in the mammalian gut microbiota …

Bacteria are under constant attack from bacteriophages (phages), bacterial parasites that
are the most abundant biological entity on earth. To resist phage infection, bacteria have …

Bacteriophages and bacterial biofilms are widely present in natural environments, a fact that
has accelerated the evolution of phages and their bacterial hosts in these particular niches …

Biofilms are aggregates of bacterial cells surrounded by an extracellular matrix. Much
progress has been made in studying biofilm growth on solid substrates; however, little is …

Bacteriophages (phages) have been shaping bacterial ecology and evolution for millions of
years, for example, by selecting for defence strategies. Evidence supports that bacterial …

Numerous ecological interactions among microbes—for example, competition for space and
resources, or interaction among phages and their bacterial hosts—are likely to occur …

The interactions between bacteria and bacteriophage have important roles in the global
ecosystem; in turn changes in environmental parameters affect the interactions between …
