Plaques are what form when viruses, or various microparasites more generally, grow in association with host cells within spatially structured environments.
| The Bacteriophage Ecology Group exists as a means of organizing the bacteriophage ecology community, fostering communication, identifying others with complementary interests, and, in general, empowering the science of bacteriophage ecology. |
