Bacteriophage density influences the rate of resistance evolution
2025-10-05
Abstract excerpt
The antagonistic relationship between bacteria and bacteriophages (phages) drives genetic changes that result in phage resistance. Phage resistance mutations arise in natural microbial communities and during the treatment of diseases with phages (phage therapy), making it important to understand the dynamics of resistance acquisition. It is well-established that when bacteria are challenged with phages in dense li...
