Study of the probability of resistance to phage infection in a collection of clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in relation to the presence of Pf phages
ABSTRACT Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a bacterial pathogen that is a major cause of lung infections in cystic fibrosis (CF) and other patients.Isolates of P.aeruginosa from Building Set CF patients commonly carry filamentous phages (Pf phages), which constitute a family of temperate phages known to be related to biofilm production and antibiotic seque
