These findings emphasize the close interconnections between evolution of bacteriophages and evolution of their hosts.

Also, the presence of bacteriophages in drinking water and subsequently in natural biofilms may not predict the presence of pathogenic viruses.

They contrast it with the planktic lifestyle and suggest that it offers protection from bothbacteriophageand predatory amoebae.

Neither was it the result ofbacteriophageactivity.

Biological and physical simplicity relative to other viral systems have made the bacteriophages an attractive model system in biophysical virology.

Furthermore, both methods enabled us also to detect ' normal ' genetic variations by acquisition of plasmids and bacteriophages.

The molecular weights of the linearized plasmids (see below) and the restriction fragments were determined by comparison with the size of thebacteriophagel molecular-size ladder.

Here, the use of bacteriophages as indicators for pathogenic viruses to evaluate the efficiency of elution protocols is substantiated by similar viral characteristics such as size, shape and isoelectric point.

For over 50 years, the study ofbacteriophagebiology has yielded significant insight into virus development and has been at the forefront of genetics and molecular biology.

Bacteriophagetherapy and prophylaxis : rediscovery and renewed assessment of potential.

This has also been shown in pilot-scale studies in which bacteriophages and vaccine poliovirus strains were spiked into water and could be eluted from artificial biofilms.

Bacteriophagegenetics was one of the two sources from which molecular biology sprang in the early 1950s, the other being the biochemical genetics of fungi and bacteria.

I confess to something of a hobby-horse in the area of what are called "bacteriophages".

I received correspondence from others about the potential in the long term for the use of bacteriophages—bacteria-eating viruses that have been developed in other countries.
