This study examines how mucins affect phage infection and biofilm formation in Yersinia enterocolitica, showing enhanced phage replication and bacterial survival with mucin exposure.

The paper isolates and characterizes a new Finnlakevirus strain, FLiP-2, showing differences in host interaction and environmental adaptability compared to its relative FLiP and a dsDNA phage.

The paper isolates 40 bacteriophages from boreal and subarctic freshwaters, identifying eight jumbophages with novel genomic features and ecological roles.

The study investigates phage resistance mechanisms in Flavobacterium hosts against ssDNA phage FLiP, finding that resistant hosts may harbor FLiP genomes in dsDNA form, suggesting lysogeny and a potential survival strategy.

The paper shows mucin enhances bacteriophage protection against Pseudomonas aeruginosa in airway epithelial cells while altering bacterial virulence traits.

This study tracks changes in gut plasmid populations and antibiotic resistance during and after antibiotic therapy in a single patient with ESBL-carrying E. coli.

The paper isolates and characterizes Jyvaskylavirus, a new giant virus from Finland, revealing its structural features and genomic similarities to other marseilleviruses.
