Abstract

The rapid and important developments that have taken place in the field of bacteriophages in the last fifteen years are due to a number of favorable circumstances. Very important among these was the production of plaques, and the early recognition that they are produced by single virus particles; this caused the development of morphological, physiological, and genetic studies of the virus particle.
