Abstract
• Geobacter soli genome harbors intact and active prophages that can be induced. • Fe(III) oxide reduction triggered SOS response that induced prophage induction. • More phages released in Fe(III) oxide reduction than soluble Fe(III) reduction. • Prophage-mediated release of eDNA and MVs favored Fe(III) oxide reduction. • Geobacter-harboring prophages played a positive role in Fe(III) oxide reduction.Keywords
