Diversity of pili-specific bacteriophages: genome sequence of IncM plasmid-dependent RNA phage M

Background Bacteriophages of the Leviviridae family are small RNA viruses with linear, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA genomes that encode only four proteins. All phages of this family require bacterial pili to attach to and infect cells. Leviviridae phages utilizing F-pili for this purpose have...
