Journal Article
Staphylococcus species infected by a bacteriophage with a tail that is both curved and contractile
2026
Overview
Past work has seen over-representation of Staphylococcus aureus clinical isolates in genome and biology studies on staphylococci. Here, we show by a selective plating analysis of municipal wastewater that independent isolates representing seven other species of Staphylococcus were recovered ( S. cohnii , S. equorum , S. lentus , S. nepalensis , S. sciuri, S. shinii, and S. xylosus ), as readily identified in the samples. Genome sequence analysis revealed some species-specific antibiotic resistance profiles across the strains, and a bacteriophage was isolated that had a cross-species host range. Using this broad biological approach to analyze staphylococci has identified a phage with a broad killing range, and this phage is morphologically distinct from the three known types of tailed phages.
