Escherichia virus T3 explained
Escherichia virus T3, also called bacteriophage T3 and T3 phage, is a bacteriophage capable of infecting susceptible bacterial cells, including strains of Escherichia coli. This phage is closely related to T7 phage in structure[1] though the two viruses may differ in capsid maturation.[2]
