Flexible genes establish widespread bacteriophage pan-genomes in cryoconite hole ecosystems
Bacteriophages and their hosts are involved in a constant evolutionary arms race that should lead to divergence between phage genes over time. Here, the authors recruit metagenomic reads to virus reference genomes and genome fragments in samples from cryoconite holes and show that phages with near-i...
