Prediction of prophages and their host ranges in pathogenic and commensal Neisseria species
G. Orazi, A. J. Collins, R. J. Whitaker
This study identifies 1302 prophages in 21 Neisseria species using virus prediction tools and finds that 20% are significantly targeted by CRISPR-Cas systems, suggesting interspecies phage movement.
