Bacteriophage genomics.

Current opinion in microbiology - 1 Oct 2008

Hatfull Graham F

Abstract excerpt

The past three years have seen an escalation in the number of sequenced bacteriophage genomes with more than 500 now in the NCBI phage database, representing a more than threefold increase since 2005. These span at least 70 different bacterial hosts, with two-thirds of the sequenced genomes of phages representing only eight bacterial hosts. Three key features emerge from the comparative analysis of these genomes....
