Citrobacter species often occur in sewage, food, soil, wastewater, and in the intestinal tract of animals and humans. Citrobacter spp. cause urinary tract infections (UTIs) and infantile meningitis in humans. Due to the presence of plasmid-encoded resistance genes, Citrobacter spp. are often resistant to many antibiotics. In this study, Citrobacter virus HCF1, a novel virulent bacteriophage capable of killing Citrobacter amalonaticus and Citrobacter freundii, was isolated from the sewage water. The isolated bacteriophage was characterized with respect to transmission electron microscopy, one-step growth curve, host range, in vitro efficacy, storage stability, and environmental stress tolerance. The one-step growth curve analysis revealed that the latent period of HCF1 was 30 min and the estimated burst size was 121 plaque-forming units (PFU) per bacterial cell. Host range testing indicated that the HCF1 was specific to the Citrobacter genus. In vitro efficacy assay in the effluent of an anaerobic biodigester showed that the HCF1 completely eliminated the host within 4 and 5 h at MOI:100 and MOI:10, respectively, thereby indicating its potential for combating C. amalonaticus infections. The isolated bacteriophage is considerably stable and tolerant to environmental stress. Furthermore, the complete genome of HCF1 was sequenced using Oxford Nanopore sequencing and the data were subjected to detailed bioinformatic analyses. NCBI-BLASTn analysis revealed that the HCF1 genome had a query coverage of 15–21% and a maximum similarity of 77.27–78.49% with 11 bacteriophages of the Drexlerviridae family. Detailed bioinformatic analysis of the genome profile suggests that HCF1 is a novel T1svirus belonging to the Tempevirinae subfamily of the Drexlerviridae family.

The Yersinia bacteriophages fPS-2, fPS-65, and fPS-90, isolated from pig stools, have long contractile tails and elongated heads, and they belong to genus Tequatroviruses in the order Caudovirales. The phages exhibited relatively wide host ranges among Yersinia pseudotuberculosis and related species. One-step growth curve experiments revealed that the phages have latent periods of 50–80 min with burst sizes of 44–65 virions per infected cell. The phage genomes consist of circularly permuted dsDNA of 169,060, 167,058, and 167,132 bp in size, respectively, with a G + C content 35.3%. The number of predicted genes range from 267 to 271. The phage genomes are 84–92% identical to each other and ca 85% identical to phage T4. The phage receptors were identified by whole genome sequencing of spontaneous phage-resistant mutants. The phage-resistant strains had mutations in the ompF, galU, hldD, or hldE genes. OmpF is a porin, and the other genes encode lipopolysaccharide (LPS) biosynthetic enzymes. The ompF, galU, and hldE mutants were successfully complemented in trans with respective wild-type genes. The host recognition was assigned to long tail fiber tip protein Gp38, analogous to that of T-even phages such as Salmonella phage S16, specifically to the distal β-helices connecting loops.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a pernicious bacterial pathogen that is difficult to treat because of high levels of antibiotic resistance. A promising alternative treatment option for such bacteria is the application of bacteriophages; the correct combination of phages plus antibiotics can produce synergistic inhibitory effects. In this study, we describe morphological changes induced by sub-MIC levels of the antibiotic aztreonam lysine (AzLys) on P. aeruginosa PA01, which may in part explain the observed phage–antibiotic synergy (PAS). One-step growth curves for phage E79 showed increased adsorption rates, decreased infection latency, accelerated time to lysis and a minor reduction in burst size. Phage E79 plus AzLys PAS was also able to significantly reduce P. aeruginosa biofilm growth over 3-fold as compared to phage treatment alone. Sub-inhibitory AzLys-induced filamentation of P. aeruginosa cells resulted in loss of twitching motility and a reduction in swimming motility, likely due to a reduction in the number of polar Type IV pili and flagella, respectively, on the filamented cell surfaces. Phage phiKZ, which uses Type IV pili as a receptor, did not exhibit increased activity with AzLys at lower sub-inhibitory levels, but still produced phage–antibiotic synergistic killing with sub-inhibitory AzLys. A one-step growth curve indicates that phiKZ in the presence of AzLys also exhibits a decreased infection latency and moderately undergoes accelerated time to lysis. In contrast to prior PAS studies demonstrating that phages undergo delayed time to lysis with cell filamentation, these PAS results show that phages undergo accelerated time to lysis, which therefore suggests that PAS is dependent upon multiple factors, including the type of phages and antibiotics used, and the bacterial host being tested.
