Chapter 26.3, Problem 1LO
Summary Introduction
To distinguish: The lytic and lysogenic cycles in bacteriophage.
Introduction: Any group of viruses that infect and replicate within the bacteria are referred to as bacteriophages. They inject their genetic material into the bacterial cells and use the biological machinery of the bacteria for their reproduction.
