Molecular evidence of parallel evolution in a cyanophage

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Jesslyn Tjendra and colleagues from the Department of Biological Sciences, University of, Institute of Marine Research have published the Article: Molecular evidence of parallel evolution in a cyanophage, in the Journal: PLOS ONE of 28/03/2022
• what: Given that these mutations were subjected to strong selection upon onset of the host-phage coexistence, the authors propose that they served to optimize host adsorption at a time when many of the host cells were likely phage-resistant.
• future: Examinations through isolation of host cells verification of phage resistance or susceptibility and growth . . .
