Stable colonization of E. gallinarum bearing lysogenic phiEG37k phage produces residual phage particles in the colon. C57BL/6 mice that have Altered Shaedler Flora (ASF-mice) were gavaged E. gallinarum either free from (G0 strain) or bearing lysogenic phiEG37k (G2 strain). (a and b) Titers of E. gallinarum (a) and phiEG37k (b) in feces from the ASF mice with no Enterococcus colonization (Ctrl), G0-colonization or G2-colonization at 4 weeks post-gavage. (c) Components of colonic microbiota in mice of the three groups described in (a). (d) Abundancy of individual bacteria consisting of ASF or E. gallinarum in the colon from mice described in (a) was displayed. One way analysis of variance with Tukey’s multiple comparison was performed for ad-hoc analysis. ns; not significant. n = 6–7.
