Genetic variation in individuals from a population of the minimalist bacteriophage Merri-merri-uth nyilam marra-natj driving evolution of the virus

ABSTRACT In a survey of a waterway on Wurundjeri land, two sub-populations of the bacteriophage Merri-merri-uth nyilam marra-natj (phage MMNM) were isolated on a permissive host, Klebsiella B5055 of capsule-type K2, but were distinguished by minor phenotypic differences. The variant phage MMNM(Ala13...
