Virulent (virtulent) phages multiply by first attaching itself to a host cell and then absorbing it. Next, it injects its own DNA and the host eventually bursts and more phages present.

What does T stands for in T phages?

In T phages, the "T" stands for "temperature." T phages are a group of bacteriophages that infect bacteria, particularly Escherichia coli. The designation helps classify these viruses based on their structural and functional characteristics, with T4 being one of the most well-studied examples.


How can you tell a positive phage and a negative phage apart?

Positive and negative phages can be differentiated based on their effects on bacterial hosts. Positive phages typically induce lysis, leading to clear zones in a bacterial lawn due to cell destruction, while negative phages may cause lysogeny, resulting in no immediate lysis and often forming turbid or cloudy areas. Additionally, molecular techniques, such as PCR or sequencing, can identify specific genetic markers associated with each type of phage.

What do you call a bacteriophage when it is in a lysogenic cycle?

Phages that replicate only via the lytic cycle are known as virulent phages while phages that replicate using both lytic and lysogenic cycles are known as temperate phages.


What are the phages called that are capable of using both modes of reproduction?

Phages that are capable of using both the lytic and lysogenic modes of reproduction are called temperate phages. In the lysogenic mode, temperate phages integrate their DNA into the host genome, while in the lytic mode, they replicate and cause cell lysis.

What is the structure of a virus like?

Viruses are ranges in different sizes and structures. HIV, HBV, influenza are all spherical in shape. Phages like T phages carry an icosahedral structures. M13 phages, ebola appear as hair like (or tube) structures. TMV appears as rod like structure.

What is the material that phages insert into bacteria?

Phages insert their genetic material, which is typically DNA, into bacteria. This genetic material carries the instructions for the phage to replicate itself within the bacterial cell.


What attaches to the bacteria and injects the hereditary material?
