Propagation of an RNA Bacteriophage at Low Host Density Leads to a More Efficient Virus Entry

The successful spread of a virus in a specific ecological niche is largely determined by host availability. The lower the host density, the longer the virus spends in the external environment between successive infections, thus increasing its probability of degradation due to physical and chemical v...
