Abstract
Tailed phages of enterobacteria are classifed by morphological and serological properties and by physico-chemical parameters of the virion and its nucleic acid. Twenty-four species are described: they include 250 phages belonging to 7 morphological groups. Type species are proposed. About 120 poorly known phages were not classified. A case of phage evolution, the reliability of data and the value of taxonomic criteria are discussed.This publication has 54 references indexed in Scilit:
