Injection by a non-enveloped virus of their genome into the host cytoplasm through creation of a pore or channel in the host membrane or cell envelope. This is usually mediated by a viral pore-forming peptide associated with the viral capsid. In phages the genome is delivered into the host cell through a genome delivery apparatus located at one of the viral vertices and, for tailed bacteriophages, through the entire tail which in some phages is contractile.
