Population dynamics of a Salmonella lytic phage and its host: implications of the host bacterial growth rate in modelling.

The prevalence and impact of bacteriophages in the ecology of bacterial communities coupled with their ability to control pathogens turn essential to understand and predict the dynamics between phage and bacteria populations. To achieve this knowledge it is essential to develop mathematical models a...
