Genome-based identification of active prophage regions by next generation sequencing in Bacillus licheniformis DSM13.
Prophages are viruses, which have integrated their genomes into the genome of a bacterial host. The status of the prophage genome can vary from fully intact with the potential to form infective particles to a remnant state where only a few phage genes persist. Prophages have impact on the properties...
