Results were recorded as +, infection, or -, no infection. *, host strain used for the isolation of Escherichia phage vECPW8. The EOP values were classified into 4 groups: high production (a ratio ≥ 0.5), moderate production (a ratio 0.1 ≤ EOP < 0.5), low production (a ratio 0.001 < EOP < 0.1) and no production (a ratio ≤ 0.001). Experiments were conducted independently in triplicate, with each set including duplicate plaque assays, and the entire process was repeated twice.
