Broad host range may be a key to long-term persistence of bacteriophages infecting intestinal Bacteroidaceae species
Abstract The longitudinal studies have found that the human gut microbiota is stable over time with some major bacterial lineages or even strains persisting for years. This was recently extended to gut bacteriophages using the metagenomic data. Here, we focused on cultivation of the major Bacteroide...
