What the book of Lambda doesnt tell us about temperate phages and lysogeny in the real world

B. A. Berryhill, R. Garcia, I. C. McCall, W. Chaudhry, M.-A. Petite, B. R. Levin

The paper uses a mathematical model and experiments to show that lysogenic bacteria are resistant and immune to their own temperate phage, confirmed by testing natural Escherichia coli isolates.

Joint antibiotic and phage therapy: addressing the limitations of a seemingly ideal phage for treating Staphylococcus aureus infections

B. Berryhill, D. Huseby, I. C. McCall, D. Hughes, B. R. Levin

This study evaluates the effectiveness of the phage PYOSa for treating Staphylococcus aureus infections, finding that while it has desirable traits, it fails to eliminate bacterial populations due to small colony variants, which can be mitigated by combining it with bactericidal antibiotics.

The population and evolutionary dynamics of bacteriophage: Why be temperate revisited

W. Chaudhry, N. Vega, A. R. Govindan, R. Garcia, E. Lee, I. C. McCall, B. R. Levin

This study uses a mathematical model and experimental tests to determine the evolutionary conditions favoring lytic or temperate phage replication modes in bacterial populations.

Antibiotic killing of diversely generated populations of non-replicating bacteria

I. C. McCall, N. Shah, A. Govindan, F. Baquero, B. R. Levin

This study investigates antibiotic killing of three types of non-replicating bacterial populations and finds they are consistently killed by aminoglycosides and peptide antibiotics.
