Infection dynamics of phage φ38:1 on its two C. baltica host strains. (a) Efficiently lytic infection on the original host displays a 75 min infection cycle via one-step growth curve, whereas (b) the inefficiently lytic infection shows no significant phage production over 4 h. (c) The efficiently lytic phage expresses genes in early, middle, late and constant low temporal groups, similar to when infecting the alternative host (d), where genes are also expressed in constant high temporal groups. Represented are the average and standard error of the biological triplicates (a and b) or the genes in each group (c and d). PFU, plaque forming units. Underlined are the time points assayed in the whole-genome transcriptional analyses.
