Comparison of bioinformatics tools to predict the presence of prophages in Helicobacter pylori genomes

Bacterio(phages) are specific viruses for bacteria, being their natural enemies. When the genome of a phage is integrated into the host bacterial genome, it is named prophage. These are a latent form of phages, in which the viral genes can increase the virulence and/or fitness characteristics of the...
