Genomic Characterization Provides New Insights for Detailed Phage- Resistant Mechanism for Brucella abortus

As the causative agent of cattle brucellosis, Brucella abortus commonly exhibits smooth phenotype (by virtue of colony morphology) that is characteristically sensitive to specific Brucella phages, playing until recently a major role in taxonomical classification of the Brucella species by the phage...
