RESUMO
We isolated three mycobacteriophages that belong to cluster S, namely, Beelzebub, Raela, and RedRaider77. Annotation revealed a genome structure typical of cluster S phages, including an atypical location of two minor tail protein genes in the right arm of these viral genomes.
RESUMO
We purified two novel bacteriophages from soil collected in Sioux County, Iowa: BAjuniper and Tedro. These bacteriophages were isolated from the host, Microbacterium foliorum. BAjuniper was assigned to cluster EB, and Tedro was assigned to cluster EF. Both phages display genomes typical of other phages in their clusters.
RESUMO
Bacteriophages Clayda5, Gshelby23, Wrigley, and Santhid were isolated from soil samples collected in Iowa, with genomes typical of actinobacteriophages from clusters EB, EM, CY, and DY, respectively. Wrigley and Santhid were isolated on Gordonia terrae and are likely to be temperate. Clayda5 and Gshelby23 were isolated on Microbacterium foliorum.
