Genetically distant bacteriophages select for unique genomic changes in Enterococcus faecalis
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "MicrobiologyOpen"
DOI: 10.1002/mbo3.1273
Abstract: The human microbiota harbors diverse bacterial and bacteriophage (phage) communities. Bacteria evolve to overcome phage infection, thereby driving phage evolution to counter bacterial resistance. Understanding how phages select for genetic alterations in medically relevant bacteria… read more here.
