A Roadmap for Genome-Based Phage Taxonomy

A Roadmap for Genome-Based Phage Taxonomy

Bacteriophage (phage) taxonomy has been in flux since its inception over four decades ago. Genome sequencing has put pressure on the classification system and recent years have seen significant changes to phage taxonomy. Here, we reflect on the state of phage taxonomy and provide a roadmap for the f...
