Unstable lysogeny and pseudolysogeny in Vibrio harveyi siphovirus-like phage I
Article Abstract:
A study aims to examine the interaction between VHS1 (Vibrio harveyi siphovirus-like phage 1) and VH1114 (Vibrio harveyi) strains. Exposure of VHS1 and VH1114 resulted in the production of low percentage of lysogenized clones of variable stability and such clones were called pseudolysogens since they have undergone transient lysogeny and have retained some resistance to full lytic phage development despite the loss of viable or detectable prophage.

Effect of nutrient addition and environmental factors on prophage induction in natural populations of marine Synechococcus species
Article Abstract:
A series of experiments were conducted to assess the impact of nutrient addition on cyanophage induction in natural populations of Synechoccus sp. It was observed that the level of cynophage induction was inversely correlated to Synechoccus and cyanophage abundance.

Interaction of the phiHSIC virus with its host: lysogeny or pseudolysogeny?
Article Abstract:
The marine phage phiHSIC forms a lysogenic interaction with its host, Listonella pelagia. During a lysogenic interaction, the phage genome becomes integrated into the host cellular replicons. If this does not happen, the interaction is said to be pseudolysogenic.
