So far, only scarce and rather diffuse information is available on bacteriophages infecting members of the genus BIFIDOBACTERIUM: In the current study, we investigated the genetic organization, phylogenetic relationships, and, in some cases, transcription profiles and inducibility of 19 prophage-like elements present on the individual chromosomes of nine bifidobacterial strains, which represent six different species.
