The bacteriophage decides own tracks: When they are with or against the bacteria

Abstract excerpt

Bacteriophages, bacteria-infecting viruses, are considered by many researchers a promising solution for antimicrobial resistance. On the other hand, some phages have shown contribution to bacterial resistance phenomenon by transducing antimicrobial resistance genes to their bacterial hosts. Contradictory consequences of infections are correlated to different phage lifecycles. Out of four known lifecycles,...
