In recent years, the application of phage therapy for the control of pathogenic bacteria has been experiencing a new renaissance driven by the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria (Gordillo Altamirano and Barr, 2019). Bacteriophages are natural predators of bacteria, presenting several benefits, the main ones related to their high specificity and their harmlessness to humans, animals, and plants. The interactions between phages and their hosts play an important role in the evolutionary ecology mechanisms of bacterial resistance and phage infectivity (“antagonistic coevolution”). Some failures in the application of phage therapy are indeed due to bacterial mutations that led to resistance (Buckling and Rainey, 2002)
