Genome Analysis of Anti-Phage Defense Systems and Defense Islands in Stenotrophomonas maltophilia: Preservation and Variability

Anti-phage defense systems are widespread in bacteria due to the latter continuous adaptation to infection by bacteriophages (phages). Stenotrophomonas maltophilia has a high degree of intrinsic antibiotic resistance, which makes phage therapy relevant for the treatment of infections caused by this...
