dc.description.abstractBacteriophages are viruses that target specific bacteria and kill them through their own replicative life cycle. As more countries ban the use of antibiotics for the control of fire blight and antibiotic resistant strains of Erwinia amylovora become more widespread, the use of phages as biological control agents is rapidly gaining interest. In the multinational Horizon 2020 Project PhageFire, several academic and industry partners have teamed up to develop a phage-based product for the control of fire blight. To design an effective and affordable phage formulation, the choice of phages in the cocktail is critical. The ultimate goal is to maximize synergistic interactions and minimize antagonistic interactions between the different phages while using the fewest number of phages possible to reduce production costs. To achieve this goal, we used a quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) approach to study different combinations of a collection of phages against a combined library of E. amylovora strains representative of the pathogen diversity in Europe. With qPCR, the populations of the phages and E. amylovora can be measured individually over time in liquid cultures. This allows us to determine which phages synergize best together, while eliminating those that get outcompeted and add little overall value to the cocktail. With this work, in conjunction with additional product formulation, regulatory efforts, and field trials we aim to develop an effective, affordable, phage-based biopesticide for the control of fire blight.de_CH
