Abstract

Over 5100 bacterial viruses have been examined in the electron microscope since 1959. About 4950 phages (96%) are tailed and only 186 phages (3.6%), are cubic, filamentous, or pleomorphic. Phages belong to 13 virus families and occur in over 140 bacterial genera. Phages are listed by morphotypes and host genera. Siphoviridae or phages with long, noncontractile tails comprise 61% of tailed phages. The distribution of phages in different bacterial phylogenetic divisions is shown.

摘要

自1959年以来，已有超过5100种细菌病毒在电子显微镜下接受了检查。约4950种噬菌体（96%）有尾，只有186种噬菌体（3.6%）呈立方体形、丝状或多形性。噬菌体属于13个病毒科，存在于140多个细菌属中。噬菌体按形态类型和宿主属列出。长尾噬菌体科或具有长的非收缩性尾巴的噬菌体占带尾噬菌体的61%。展示了噬菌体在不同细菌系统发育分类中的分布情况。
