Characterization of prophages in bacterial genomes from the honey bee (Apis mellifera) gut microbiome
The gut of the European honey bee (Apis mellifera) possesses a relatively simple bacterial community, but little is known about its community of prophages (temperate bacteriophages integrated into the bacterial genome). Although prophages may eventually begin replicating and kill their bacterial hos...
