中文摘要：

噬菌体（bacteriophage，phage）是感染细菌、真菌、放线菌或螺旋体等微生物的细菌病毒的总称。噬菌体在生态、微生物进化、细菌性疾病预防和治疗、细菌鉴定与疾病诊断等方面扮演重要角色。基因组测序技术和高效合成平台促进了合成基因组学的发展。利用合成基因组学技术，对噬菌体基因组进行设计或者合成出新的噬菌体来服务人类在不久的未来可能成为现实。但与此同时，合成噬菌体带来的风险也必须认真考虑。

英文摘要：

Phages are viruses, which infect bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, spiral bacteria and other microorganisms. Phages play an important role in ecology, microbial evolution, prevention and treatment of bacterial diseases, bacterial identification and disease diagnosis etc. Genome sequencing technology and efficient synthesis platform promote the development of synthetic genomics. Designing phage genomes or synthetizing novel phages to serve human with synthetic genomics technology could become a reality in the near future. Meanwhile, risks brought by svnthetic phage must be considered seriously.
