Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Viral Taxonomy Family names end in -viridae Genus names end in -virus Viral species: A group of viruses sharing the same genetic information and ecological niche (host). Common names are used for species Subspecies are designated by a number

10. Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Growing Viruses Animal viruses may be grown in living animals or in embryonated eggs. Figure 13.7

11. Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Growing Viruses Animal and plants viruses may be grown in cell culture. Continuous cell lines may be maintained indefinitely. Figure 13.8

Phage genome excises, carrying with it the adjacent gal gene from the host. Phage matures and cell lyses, releasing phage carrying gal gene. 1 2 3 Prophage gal gene Bacterial DNA Galactose-positive donor cell gal gene Phage infects a cell that cannot utilize galactose (lacking gal gene). 4 Galactose-negative recipient cell Along with the prophage, the bacterial gal gene becomes integrated into the new host’s DNA. 5 Lysogenic cell can now metabolize galactose. 6 Galactose-positive recombinant cell
