Thank you, this is really helpful
Hi
I have annotated a series of bacterial isolates using prokka, and am now wondering what are the best methods to explore and compare these annotations. I know that I can search for virulence factors within these annotations. However, are there any tools available to search for pathogenicity islands or phages?
Thanks

There are a lot of such tools.
Tools to search for pathogenicity islands or phages in bacterial genomes:
