Closely Related <i>Vibrio alginolyticus</i> Strains Encode an Identical Repertoire of Caudovirales-Like Regions and Filamentous Phages

Many filamentous vibriophages encode virulence genes that lead to the emergence of pathogenic bacteria. Most genomes of filamentous vibriophages characterized up until today were isolated from human pathogens. Despite genome-based predictions that environmental Vibrios also contain filamentous phage...
