The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Contractile injection systems of bacteriophages and related systems (2018, background): “In T4, all three modules of the central spike are encoded by three separate genes: the hub is gene 27, the spike is gene 5 and the spike tip is gene 5.4 (Miller et al., 2003).”
Molecular anatomy of the receptor binding module of a bacteriophage long tail fiber (2019, background): “With ~168 kbp dsDNA genome containing 289 open reading frames, T4 encodes 40 structural proteins that form the infectious virion [6].”
mobileOG-db: a Manually Curated Database of Protein Families Mediating the Life Cycle of Bacterial Mobile Genetic Elements (2021, background): “For example, these criteria excluded ribonucleotide reductases found within many phage genomes [6], which only have an indirect impact on replication through nucleotide metabolism [7,8], except under conditions of anaerobic growth [7,9].”
