Do plasmid-dependent phages enable the survival of costly plasmids?

Jonathon L. Yuly, Matthew Avallone, Lawrence Abad, Ned S. Wingreen

The paper shows that plasmid-dependent phages can help high-cost plasmids persist by reducing their abundance and neutralizing their costs in host populations.

A novel stabilization mechanism accommodating genome length variation in evolutionarily related viral capsids

Jennifer M. Podgorski, Joshua Podgorski, Lawrence Abad, Deborah Jacobs‐Sera, Krista G. Freeman, Colin Brown, Graham F. Hatfull, Antoni Luque, Simon J. White

The paper identifies a novel capsid stabilization mechanism in bacteriophages that allows larger genomes to be packaged without changing capsid size, offering insights for gene delivery system engineering.
