Novel insights into phage biology of the pathogen Clostridioides difficile based on the active virome

The global pathogen Clostridioides difficile is a well-studied organism, and researchers work on unraveling its fundamental virulence mechanisms and biology. Prophages have been demonstrated to influence C. difficile toxin expression and contribute to the distribution of advantageous genes. All thes...
