Die unentdeckte Vielfalt der Comamonadaceae-Phagen in Kläranlagen
摘要
Phages are important members of wastewater treatment plant communities. Surprisingly, little is known about phages and their impact on microbially-mediated processes in these facilities. We explore phages infecting the Comamonadaceae, a bacterial family consistently found in wastewater treatment plants. Our findings reveal limited genetic similarity between newly isolated phages and known ones, emphasizing underestimated diversity and understanding of their impact on wastewater treatment.
