Isolation, Culture, and Characterization of Bacteriophages

2008-10-15

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Bacteriophages (phages) are viruses that infect bacteria. Phages are the most abundant biological entities on Earth, and have influential effects on every ecosystem. Phage genomes represent a vast gene pool from which bacteria can draw upon for rapid evolution.
