Bacteriophages can protect not only people, but also plants
When we talk about bacteriophages, we usually think of their use in combating antibiotic-resistant bacteria in medicine.

Bacteriophages can selectively destroy bacteria that cause dangerous diseases in tomatoes, potatoes, apples, pears, peppers, and other plants without harming the plants themselves, humans, or beneficial microorganisms.
