Bacteriophages, a Brief Introductiontal there are more than ten described family-level phage taxa. This chapter provides a brief introduction to the general biology of bacteriophages. Introduced are the concepts of phage productive, phage reductive, and phage destructive infections, which are phage infections that either produce and r

A Closer Overview of Phage Infectionsction defined here as beginning at the point of phage nucleic acid entry into the bacterial cytoplasm. A basic distinction that can be made between different types of successful, not phage-destructive infections is whether they do or do not lead directly to the production and release of virions (vir

Evolutionary Biology Basicsng the evolutionary ecology of phages as drivers of evolution, especially the evolution of bacteria. Emphasis is placed on understanding the four basic mechanisms by which the frequencies of alleles can be modified within populations over time, that is, the four basic drivers of evolutionary change.

Bacterial Mutation Associated with Phages: Insertionsion. The results of this are insertion mutations. In many cases, prophages employ mechanisms to ensure that the resulting mutations are not detrimental to either their host bacteria or themselves. Sometimes, even for those temperate phages, however, detrimental mutations can still occur, such as if

Bacterial Mutation Associated with Phages: Deletions bacterial genomes?” The authors in that article suggest that bacteria can display elevated rates of deletion mutagenesis especially toward removing detrimental or potentially detrimental prophages from their genomes. While I have long had an appreciation of this hypothesis, here I suggest that it m
