Taxonomy of prokaryotic viruses: 2017 update from the ICTV Bacterial and Archaeal Viruses Subcommittee (2018)
Journal Article

The prokaryotic virus community is represented at the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) by the Bacterial and Archaeal Viruses Subcommittee. Since our last report, the committee composition has changed, and a large number of taxono...

Visualization of phage genomic data: Comparative genomics and publication-quality diagrams (2018)
Book Chapter

© 2018, Springer Science+Business Media LLC. The presentation of bacteriophage genomes as diagrams allows the location and organization of features to be communicated in a clear and effective manner. A wide range of software applications are availabl... Read More about Visualization of phage genomic data: Comparative genomics and publication-quality diagrams.

Comparative analysis of 37 Acinetobacter bacteriophages (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Members of the genus Acinetobacter are ubiquitous in the environment and the multipledrug resistant species A. baumannii is of significant clinical concern. This clinical relevance is currentl...

Genome sequence of vB_AbaS_TRS1, a viable prophage isolated from Acinetobacter baumannii strain A118 (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 Turner et al. A novel temperate phage, vB_AbaS_TRS1, was isolated from cultures of Acinetobacter baumannii strain A118 that had been exposed to mitomycin C. Phage TRS1 belongs to the Siphoviridae family of bacteriophages and encapsulates a 40,...

Comparative analysis of multiple inducible phages from Mannheimia haemolytica (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015 Niu et al. Background: Mannheimia haemolytica is a commensal bacterium that resides in the upper respiratory tract of cattle that can play a role in bovine respiratory disease. Prophages are common in the M. haemolytica genome and contribute s... Read More about Comparative analysis of multiple inducible phages from Mannheimia haemolytica.

A proposed new bacteriophage subfamily: “Jerseyvirinae” (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015, Springer-Verlag Wien. Based on morphology and comparative nucleotide and protein sequence analysis, a new subfamily of the family Siphoviridae is proposed, named “Jerseyvirinae” and consisting of three genera, “Jerseylikevirus”, “Sp3unalikevi...

CoreGenes3.5: A webserver for the determination of core genes from sets of viral and small bacterial genomes (2013)
Journal Article

Background: CoreGenes3.5 is a webserver that determines sets of core genes from viral and small bacterial genomes as an automated batch process. Previous versions of CoreGenes have been used to classify bacteriophage genomes and mine data from pathog...

Characterisation of three bacteriophages infecting serovars of salmonella enterica (2013)
Thesis

A collection of three newly isolated Salmonella bacteriophages, vB_SenS-Ent1, vB_SenS-Ent2 and vB_SenS-Ent3 was established. These bacteriophages were characterised by electron microscopy, host range, sensitivity to restriction enzymes and profiles o...

Characterization of the Salmonella bacteriophage vB_SenS-Ent1 (2012)
Journal Article

The bacteriophage vB_SenS-Ent1 (Ent1) is a member of the family Siphoviridae of tailed bacteriophages and infects a broad range of serovars of the enteric pathogen Salmonella enterica. The virion particle is composed of an icosahedral head 64 nm in d... Read More about Characterization of the Salmonella bacteriophage vB_SenS-Ent1.
