From compost to culver: genome sequence and annotation of a cluster CQ1 Gordonia phage.

Phage Culver, with a siphovirus morphology, was isolated using Gordonia terrae CAG3. Culver is assigned to phage cluster CQ1 based on gene content similarity to actinobacteriophages. Notably, Culver is predicted to encode eight tRNAs, lysin A by two adjacent genes, and, unlike other CQ1 phages, two putative integrase genes.

Genome Sequence and Annotation of Bacteriophage Tokki Isolated on Arthrobacter globiformis B-2979.

Arthrobacter phage Tokki is a siphovirus isolated from soil in River Falls, Wisconsin. The genome contains 57,652-bp encoding 98 proteins, of which 23 were assigned a function. Tokki's genome structure and content is typical of other AU2 subcluster phages, except for the lack of an identifiable acetyltransferase.
