[Detection of bacteriophages of siphoviridae family in Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora].
It was established that the polylysogenic phage system of culture Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora 91P includes: a) defective bacteriophages of Myoviridae family, which are displayed as macromolecular carotovoricins b) valuable highly unstable temperate phage, which can be attributed to the family Myoviridae, and which, perhaps, is an analogue of phage ZF40 [6], and c) resistant to osmotic shock temperate phage of family Siphoviridae. This phage, called TIRI, consists of isometric head 50 nm in diameter and a rigid tail structure 203 nm long. A characteristic feature of the phage tail is an evident transverse striation, which is also indicative for the tail-like particle of the defective temperate phage of the strain 48A-7/4b. In general, the phage system of E carotovora subsp. carotovora is similar to Pseudomonas aeruginosa with its R- and F-bacteriocins, and phages of the families Myoviridae and Siphoviridae.
