Stx-Phages: Drivers and Mediators of the Evolution of STEC and STEC-Like Pathogens

28 Mar 2007

Abstract excerpt

Bacteriophages, also known as phages, are viruses that infect bacteria. Until recently they have been ignored by most of the scientific community, but their impact upon our world is enormous. They are the most abundant lifeform on the globe and drive the diversity and abundance of bacteria around us, including, in many instances, the pathogenic profiles of many of mankind's most feared bacterial pathogens. This...
