| Phage | L. lactis IL1403 | L. lactis IL1403 integrant in rgpEb | L. lactis IL1403 integrant in ycaGb | L. lactis Wg2 | L. lactis Wg2 integrant in ycbBb | L. lactis Wg2 integrant in ycbCb |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| bIL170 | + (2)c | − | − | − | − | − |
| 645 | + (2) | + (5) | + (5) | + (1) | − | − |
a
Infection was determined by plaque assays, and binding ability was determined by using SYBR Gold-stained phages. +, positive; −, negative.
b
Integrants of L. lactis IL-1403 and L. lactis Wg2 with reduced adsorption of bIL170 and φ645, respectively.
c
The numbers in parentheses are the diameters (in millimeters) of the plaques appearing in the plaque assays.
