Genomic Analysis of Molecular Bacterial Mechanisms of Resistance to Phage Infection

Genomic Analysis of Molecular Bacterial Mechanisms of Resistance to Phage Infection

To optimize phage therapy, we need to understand how bacteria evolve against phage attacks. One of the main problems of phage therapy is the appearance of bacterial resistance variants. The use of genomics to track antimicrobial resistance is increasingly developed and used in clinical laboratories....
