Prophage Genomics and Ecology in the Family <i>Rhodobacteraceae</i>

Roseobacters are globally abundant bacteria with critical roles in carbon and sulfur biogeochemical cycling. Here, we identified 173 new putative prophages in 79 genomes of <i>Rhodobacteraceae</i>. These prophages represented 1.3 ± 0.15% of the bacterial genomes and had no to low homolog...
