Bacteriophages affect evolution of bacterial communities in spatially distributed habitats: a simulation study

BACKGROUND: Bacteriophages are known to be one of the driving forces of bacterial evolution. Besides promoting horizontal transfer of genes between cells, they may induce directional selection of cells (for instance, according to more or less resistance to phage infection). Switching between lysogen...
