The French Phage Network (Phages.fr) has continuously grown since its foundation, eight years ago. annual conference, held at the Institut Pasteur in Paris, attracted 164 participants from 11th to 13th of October 2022. Researchers academic laboratories, hospitals and private companies shared their ongoing projects breakthroughs very institute where Felix d’Hérelle developed phage therapy over a century conference was divided into four thematic sessions, each opened by keynote lecture: “Interaction between phages, mobile genetic elements bacterial immune system,” “Ecology evolution phage–bacteria interactions,” “Molecular interplay phages hosts” “Therapeutic biotechnological applications phages.” A total 32 talks 33 posters were presented during conference.

Abstract Viral-induced microbial mortality has been proposed as a major contributor in shaping community structure and function, soil carbon (C) accrual mobilization of plant available nutrients. Yet, how viruses influence organic C (SOC) turnover sequestration remains unknown. Here, we performed microcosm experiments with two distinct soils from grassland (GL) agricultural (AG) sites interrogated the roles driving succession, SOC transformation sequestration. The results show that affected use efficiency reduced respiration communities obtained both GL AG soils. Soil successional trajectories (via predation dominant populations) functional gene profiles triggering significant decrease CO 2 N O emissions. impact on composition microcosms was much less pronounced compared microcosms, suggesting contrasting virus-host interaction patterns under different environmental settings. Viral infection significantly enhanced necromass accumulation thereby increasing total nitrogen (TN) content. implicate viral-mediated key factor influencing distribution between mineralization storage pathways.

The French Phage Network organizes a scientific meeting every year in which the community of researchers from academia and industry, as well clinicians participate due to growing interest phage therapy. Although centered on giving exposure future generations scientists with senior investigators invited main speakers, has also welcomed participants other countries. Covering almost aspect bacteriophage biology, is an opportunity not only expose youngest broad range topics, but share their most recent "work progress" without undergoing stringent selection process obtain oral presentation slot. This report reflects dynamism research field bacteriophages across multiple disciplines, including molecular structural ecology, evolution, therapy, biotechnology.

Abstract As central members of soil trophic networks, viruses have the potential to drive substantial microbial mortality and nutrient turnover. Pinpointing viral contributions terrestrial ecosystem processes remains a challenge, as temporal dynamics are difficult unravel in spatially physicochemically heterogeneous environment. In Mediterranean grasslands, first rainfall after seasonal drought provides an reset, triggering activity during tractable window for capturing short-term dynamics. Here, we simulated precipitation microcosms from four distinct, dry grassland soils generated 144 viromes 84 metagenomes characterize viral, prokaryotic, relic DNA over 10 days. Vastly different communities each followed remarkably similar successional trajectories. Wet-up triggered significant increase abundance richness, by extensive compositional While turnover prokaryotic was much less pronounced, differences relative abundances Actinobacteria (enriched soils) Proteobacteria wetted matched those their predicted phages, indicating predation dominant bacterial taxa. Rewetting also rapidly depleted DNA, which subsequently re-accumulated, new days wet-up, particularly taxa putatively under phage predation. Production abundant, diverse particles via host cell lysis appears be conserved feature early response rewetting, results suggest ‘Cull-the-Winner’ dynamics, whereby infect cull but do not decimate populations.
