High cell densities favor lysogeny: induction of an H20 prophage is repressed by quorum sensing and enhances biofilm formation in Vibrio anguillarum
Temperate ϕH20-like phages are repeatedly identified at geographically distinct areas as
free phage particles or as prophages of the fish pathogen Vibrio anguillarum. We studied …
