Genomic and Ecogenomic Characterization of Proteus mirabilis Bacteriophages

Genomic and Ecogenomic Characterization of Proteus mirabilis Bacteriophages

Proteus mirabilis often complicates the care of catheterized patients through the formation of crystalline biofilms which block urine flow. Bacteriophage therapy has been highlighted as a promising approach to control this problem, but relatively few phages infecting P. mirabilis have been character...
