| Abstract: | Nine known temperature phages ofBacillus subtilis, including four that are newly isolated (ϱ6, ϱ10, ϱ14, and ϱ18), have been compared. Analysis by serology, immunity, host
range, and adsorption site similarity place the phages into four groups: Group I, ϕ105, ϱ6, ϱ10, and ϱ14, which are 80–90%
related; Group II, SPO2; Group III, ϕ3T and ϱ11, 100% related; and Group IV, SP16. The phage ϱ18 is largely uncharacterized,
but is heteroimmune to other groups. |
