Bacterial resistance to temperate phage is influenced by the frequency of lysogenic establishment

Summary: Temperate phages can shape bacterial community dynamics and evolution through lytic and lysogenic life cycles. In response, bacteria that resist phage infection can emerge. This study explores phage-based factors that influence bacterial resistance using a model system of temperate P22 phag...
