Although amplification of at least one of the markers does not necessarily mean that the bacterial strains are lysogens (i.e. marker genes in defective prophages), our results support the notion that lysogeny in S. epidermidis may be higher than anticipated and likely more frequent among clinical strains, as noted previously in S. aureus strains isolated from diverse clinical samples [ 28].
