Talk:Ff phages

Merge in
Looking at the edit histories, I note that Inovirus was merged to here back in April following (appropriate) discussion at Talk:Inovirus. however, the usual merge templates aren't in place, nor comment in the edit summaries to indicate what is a part of the merge and what is new content. So, I write here so that this episode is event is noted for the purposes of attribution, and also as a reminder (Androidpar ...) of the protocol (see WP:MERGETEXT).

Application
See Used for this purpose are modified filamentous bacterophages M13 (Genus Inovirus, Class Faserviricetes). The article in SciTechDaily currently pictures erraneously non-filamentous bacteriophages with head-tail-structure, i. e. of class Caudoviricetes, which are not subject of the study. NB: AFAIK toxin genes of strain E. coli O157 ar coded in a plasmid (prosumably a prophage, see ViralZone https://viralzone.expasy.org/3967) - these might be descendents of phages of class Caudoviricetes but seemingly do no longer build virions.
