Host life-history traits influence the distribution of prophages and the genes they carry
Published in Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological sciences (17-01-2022)“…Bacterial strains with a short minimal doubling time-'fast-growing' hosts-are more likely to contain prophages than their slow-growing counterparts. Pathogenic…”

Evolutionary stability of the lysis-lysogeny decision: Why be virulent?
Published in Evolution (01-01-2019)“…Lytic viruses infect and kill host cells, producing a large number of viral copies. Temperate viruses, in contrast, are able to integrate viral genetic…”

Mathematical Modelling of Prophage Dynamics
Published 01-01-2020“…We use mathematical models to study prophages, viral genetic sequences carried by bacterial genomes. In this work, we first examine the role that plasmid…”
