Characterization of a novel Phietavirus genus bacteriophage and its potential for efficient transfer of modified shuttle plasmids to Staphylococcus aureus strains of different clonal complexes

Characterization of a novel Phietavirus genus bacteriophage and its potential for efficient transfer of modified shuttle plasmids to Staphylococcus aureus strains of different clonal complexes

ABSTRACT Staphylococcus aureus is a significant human pathogen responsible for various nosocomial and community-acquired infections, leading to considerable morbidity and mortality worldwide. Temperate bacteriophages contribute to its virulence and facilitate the dissemination of pathogenicity trait...
