Andrew M. Kropinski,Andrew M. Kropinski,Amanda Mazzocco,Thomas E. Waddell,Erika J. Lingohr,Roger P. Johnson +5 more
TL;DR: This chapter describes the classical overlay protocol, which is fundamental to many protocols in phage biology, genetics, and molecular biology.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The MIUViG (Minimum Information about an Uncultivated Virus Genome) as mentioned in this paper standard was developed within the Genomic Standards Consortium framework and includes virus origin, genome quality, genome annotation, taxonomic classification, biogeographic distribution and in silico host prediction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Construction of broad-host-range plasmid vectors for easy visible selection and analysis of promoters.
TL;DR: A series of broad-host-range plasmids which use "visual screens" to detect promoter activity and are capable of replicating in a wide range of gram-negative bacteria.
