          Phage History

          Discovered in 1915 by Twort and independently by d’Hérelle in 1917, bacteriophages were initially studied for their therapeutic potential, later as molecular models, and later still for their contribution to the world’s ecology.

          For reprints of these seminal articles, see Twort (1915) and d’Hérelle (1917).

          For a fairly comprehensive list of phage monographs, from 1921 to present, see the Wikipedia Phage Monographs page.
