Growing Bacteriophage M13 in Liquid Culture Protocol - http://www.cshprotocols.org/cgi/content/extract/2006/2/pdb.prot3994

Category: Viral Culture and Isolation Protocols: Viral Culture Protocols

Most manipulations with M13, including preparations of viral stocks and isolation of single- and double-stranded DNAs, begin with small-scale liquid cultures that are infected with an M13 plaque, picked from an agar plate. - [Read Growing Bacteriophage M13 in Liquid Culture Protocol]

Plating Bacteriophage Lambda Protocol - http://www.cshprotocols.org/cgi/content/extract/2006/2/pdb.prot3961

Category: Viral Manipulation Protocols: Phage Protocols

Protocol describes a method for generating isolated plaques from a stock of bacteriophage lambda. Each plaque derives from infection of a single bacterium by a single bacteriophage particle. Because each plaque contains the progeny of a single virus particle, the bacteriophages derived from a single plaque are essentially genetically identical to one another. - [Read Plating Bacteriophage Lambda Protocol]

Titering of Bacterial Viruses Protocol - http://biology.clc.uc.edu/fankhauser/Labs/Microbiology/Phage/Phage_Titer.htm

Category: Viral Culture and Isolation Protocols: Viral Culture Protocols

When an individual bacterial virus grows in a bacterial host suspended in a top agar lawn, its progeny infect and lyse the surrounding host cells. This causes the appearance of a "hole" or plaque in the otherwise homogeneous bacterial lawn. Since each plaque represents a single virus, the number of viruses in the aliquot added to the plate is equal to the number of plaques which appear. - [Read Titering of Bacterial Viruses Protocol]
