A comprehensive understanding of bacteriophage structure is fundamental to leveraging their potential in biotechnology, from phage therapy and biocontrol to diagnostic applications. Phages exhibit a remarkable diversity in morphology, but the vast majority of characterized phages, particularly those in the order Caudovirales, share a binary architecture consisting of a nucleic acid-containing head (capsid) and a protein tail.
