Induction of multiple prophages from a marine bacterium: A genomic approach
Article Abstract:
A novel strategy is demonstrated for investigating the inducibility of prophages based on knowledge of the genomic sequence of the marine bacterium Silicibacter sp. strain TM1040. Five putative prophages are identified in the TM1040 genome questioning about their activity and potential for being induced to form phage particles.

Chemotaxis of Silicibacter sp. strain TM1040 toward dinoflagellate products
Article Abstract:
The implication of Silicibacter sp. strain TM1040 in establishing and maintaining its interaction with Pfiesteria piscicida is discussed. The test results show that TM1040 is a very good model for studying bacterium-dinoflagellate interactions.
