This project aims at studying the genomic diversity of V. cholerae populations and the associated bacteriophage populations in environmental water samples from Bangladesh. Phage DNA will be recovered by a) enriching for DNA from Vibrio cholerae-specific phages by inoculation of host bacterial culture, including cultures of strains isolated from the same time and location and historical isolates; and b) by flocculation of all viruses present in the initial water sample i.e. recovering metagenomic viral DNA. This data is part of a pre-publication release.

This project aims at studying the genomic diversity of V. cholerae populations and the associated bacteriophage populations in environmental water samples from several sites in three locations in Bangladesh: Dhaka, Mathbaria and Chattak (Sylhet). Phage DNA will be recovered by a) enriching for DNA from Vibrio cholerae-specific phages by inoculation of host bacterial culture, including cultures of strains isolated from the same time and location and historical isolates; and b) by flocculation of all viruses present in the initial water sample i.e. recovering metagenomic viral DNA
