- A virus that is parasitic (reproduces itself) in bacteria; "phage uses the bacterium's machinery and energy to produce more phage until the bacterium is destroyed and phage is released to invade surrounding bacteria"
- A bacteriophage /u02C8bu00E6ku02C8tu026Au0259r.i.ou028Au02CCfeu026Adu0292/ (informally, phage /u02C8feu026Adu0292/) is a virus that infects and replicates within a bacterium. The term is derived from "bacteria" and the Greek: u03C6u03B1u03B3u03B5u1FD6u03BD (phagein), "to devour".

- (bacteriophages) Viruses that attack and kill bacterial cells; composed only of DNA and protein. PICTURE
- A virus that replicates inside a bacterium. (10)
- A virus that infects bacteria. Also called simply phage. Altered forms are used in DNA cloning work, where they are convenient vectors. The bacteriophages most used are derived from two "wild" phages, called M13 and lambda (l). ...
