The following synopsis is intended to summarize the various sub-fields encompassed by bacteriophage ecology. These fields are listed under eight main headings: as well as numerous subheadings (and further subdivisions). Associated with each area I have listed researchers with experience studying these areas, with links back to member's Bacteriophage Ecology Group entries. This page is a work in progress and I am very much open to suggestions on such things as content, order, addition/removal of headings/subheadings, addition/removal of associated researchers, etc. Please contact me with any suggestions.
