Expression and evolutionary patterns of mycobacteriophage D29 and its temperate close relatives

Abstract Background Mycobacteriophages are viruses that infect Mycobacterium hosts. A large collection of phages known to infect the same bacterial host strain – Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2155 – exhibit substantial diversity and characteristically mosaic architectures. The well-studied lytic mycobac...
