1	ASM Division M The ASM Division M group covers bacteriophage. The group is very active in the ASM and covers phage genetics, genomics, evolution, and biology.	161
2	Phage Ecology Group The Bacteriophage Ecology Group is run by Steve Abedon, and covers general aspects of phage ecology.	163
3	Virology.net All the Virology on the WWW seeks to be the best single site for Virology information on the Internet. We have collected all the virology related Web sites that might be of interest to our fellow virologists, and others interested in learning more about viruses. Additionally, we have created an index to virus pictures on the web, The Big Picture Book of Viruses, which also functions as a resource for viral taxonomy. A collection of some of the best Online Virology and Microbiology Course Notes available can also be found here. If you're interested in even more information, we have The Virology Bookshop, an on-line microbiology and virology bookstore with a significant discount for our users.	144
4	ATCC The American Type Culture Collection includes both phages, and their bacterial hosts. You can order strains from them, delivered straight to your lab!	219
5	Felix d'Herelle Reference Center for Phages The Felix d'Hérelle reference center for bacterial viruses was founded in 1982 through the efforts of Hans-W. Ackermann MD. Dr. Ackermann maintained the activities of the Centre until his retirement, and it is now run by Sylvain Moineau Ph.D., Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Microbiology, Laval University. The mission of the Felix d'Hérelle Centre is to collect, preserve and distribute reference phages and associated information for research and teaching. The collection is used to identify phages' key taxonomic significance, historical, geographical, agricultural, medical, environmental, veterinary or industrial uses. In addition, the Center maintains a collection of about 6,000 books and articles. The collection also offers a variety of services and related research on phages, such as identification using an electron microscope, genomic analyses, and the screening of bacterial strains for lysogeny.	255
6	Books about phages The history of phage study is captured, in part, in the books published on the topic. This is a list of over 100 monograph on or related to phages.	170
7	Phages and Nobels Phages have been instrumental in decoding the genetic basis of life since the earliest experiments to determine the hereditary material. This site provides the key Nobel lectures on phages.	165
8	Restriction enzyme database The Restriction Enzyme Database A collection of information about restriction enzymes and related proteins. It contains published and unpublished references, recognition and cleavage sites, isoschizomers, commercial availability, methylation sensitivity, crystal, genome, and sequence data. DNA methyltransferases, homing endonucleases, nicking enzymes, specificity subunits and control proteins are also included. Putative DNA methyltransferases and restriction enzymes, as predicted from analysis of genomic sequences, are also listed. REBASE is updated daily and is constantly expanding.	168
