Role of phage ϕ1 in two strains of Salmonella Rissen, sensitive and resistant to phage ϕ1

Role of phage ϕ1 in two strains of Salmonella Rissen, sensitive and resistant to phage ϕ1

Abstract Background The study describes the Salmonella Rissen phage ϕ1 isolated from the ϕ1-sensitive Salmonella Rissen strain RW. The same phage was then used to select the resistant strain RRϕ1+, which can harbour or not ϕ1. Results Following this approach, we found that ϕ1, upon excision from RW...
