Abstract
A process of identifying and disrupting bacterial DNA sequences that contribute to the evolution of new lytic bacteriophages is described. Vectors and recombinant bacteria for use in producing fermentative starter cultures and culture resistant to the appearance of new phages, and methods of producing such vectors and recombinant bacteria, are described.
