A correlation between the genome compositions of bacteriophages and their hosts.

A Gibbs, S Primrose.   

Abstract

The base composition of the genomes of bacteriophages and other viruses is, in a very general way, related to the base composition of the genomes of their hosts by the statistically significant linear regression: (phage GC%)=9.12 + 0.74 (host GC%). The significance and possible use of this relationship is discussed.
