ABSTRACT
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is emerging as an opportunistic multidrug-resistant pathogen. S. maltophilia podophage Philippe has a 74,717-bp genome which is related broadly to the N4-like phage group, including Stenotrophomonas phage Pokken. The low sequence identity to other described phages suggests that Philippe is an unclassified member of the N4-like subfamily Rothmandenesvirinae.
ABSTRACT
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is associated with an increasing incidence of nosocomial infections. Here, we describe the isolation and genome annotation of S. maltophilia siphophage Siara. Its 61,427-bp genome is currently related only to one phage in the NCBI database, namely, S. maltophilia phage Salva, and is not related to any prophages.
ABSTRACT
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an opportunistic bacterium that is commonly associated with respiratory infections in immunocompromised patients, including cystic fibrosis patients. In this report, we introduce the complete genome sequence of S. maltophilia podophage Pepon, which is a T7-like phage closely related to the previously reported phage Ponderosa.
ABSTRACT
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is a multidrug-resistant nosocomial pathogen that can cause life-threatening infections among immunocompromised populations. This report presents the complete 74,962-bp genome of S. maltophilia podophage Paxi, an N4-like phage sharing 85.3% nucleotide similarity to S. maltophilia podophage Pokken.
ABSTRACT
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an opportunistic pathogen exhibiting resistance to multiple antimicrobials. This study reports the complete genome of an S. maltophilia siphophage, Summit. Its genome of 95,728 bp has 148 protein-coding genes and 5 tRNAs, including 1 predicted suppressor tRNA. Possible target genes for the suppressor tRNA are not identified.
ABSTRACT
Phage Sonora is a siphophage that was isolated against the opportunistic human pathogen Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. The genome of phage Sonora is 63,825 bp long and is not related to that of any phage at the nucleotide level. Sonora shares 46 of 97 total proteins with the Bordetella phages CN2, MW2, and FP1.
ABSTRACT
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an emerging multidrug-resistant opportunistic human pathogen causing various nosocomial infections. Here, we characterize the genome of S. maltophilia podophage Piffle. Its 76,332-bp genome is most closely related to the N4-like S. maltophilia podophage Pokken, with over 86% genome-wide nucleotide identity and 84 shared proteins.
ABSTRACT
Burkholderia cenocepacia is able to cause infections in cystic fibrosis patients. B. cenocepacia phage Paku has a 42,727-bp genome sharing a phiKMV-like genome arrangement. T7-like tail components were identified in parallel with a tyrosine integrase, suggesting that Paku might exhibit a temperate lifestyle, an atypical feature for an Autographiviridae phage.
ABSTRACT
Phage Suso is a temperate siphophage of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia with a 44,659-bp genome. This phage is closely related to Stenotrophomonas phage SM171, sharing 92% overall nucleotide identity as determined by BLASTn, and it shares 14 similar proteins (BLASTp, E value < 0.001) with some Pseudomonas phages from the genus Beetrevirus.
ABSTRACT
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an opportunistic pathogen demonstrating increasing drug resistance. Here, the genome of the T7-like S. maltophilia podophage Ptah is described. Its 42,593-bp genome is closely related to previously reported T7-like S. maltophilia podophages, including phage Ponderosa.
ABSTRACT
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is a Gram-negative bacterium known to cause respiratory tract infections and other diseases in humans. Here, we describe the isolation and genome annotation of S. maltophilia siphophage Suzuki. Its 56,042-bp genome has 83 predicted protein-coding genes and demonstrates similarity with Xylella phages Sano and Salvo.
ABSTRACT
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an opportunistic Gram-negative bacterium capable of causing respiratory infections. S. maltophilia siphophage Silvanus was isolated, and its 45,678-bp genome is not closely related to known phages based on whole-genome comparative genomics analysis. It is predicted to use cos-type packaging due to the similarity of its large terminase subunit to that of phage HK97.
ABSTRACT
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is a Gram-negative opportunistic bacterium that is increasingly being associated with infections. Here, we report the complete genome of the S. maltophilia myophage Marzo, with a 159,384-bp genome encoding 268 proteins, 23 tRNAs, and 1 transfer-messenger RNA. Marzo is closely related to S. maltophilia phages IME-SM1 and Mendera.
ABSTRACT
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is a Gram-negative pathogen causing severe and often refractory illnesses such as pneumonia and bacteremia. We present the genome of phage Salva, a novel S. maltophilia phage that is not closely related to any phages currently deposited in GenBank. The genome is 60,789 bp, containing 102 putative protein-coding genes.
ABSTRACT
Bradyrhizobium japonicum is a nitrogen-fixing, Gram-negative bacterium that forms a symbiotic relationship with leguminous plants. This announcement describes the isolation and genome annotation of B. japonicum T7-like podophage Paso. Genomic analysis reveals genes that are associated with both the T5 and T7 modes of genomic DNA entry into the host.
ABSTRACT
Achromobacter spp. are ubiquitous Gram-negative bacteria, some of which can cause respiratory tract infections in patients with autoimmune disorders and cystic fibrosis. Bacteriophages have therapeutic and biotechnological potential to combat Achromobacter sp. infections. This announcement details the 42.5-kb genome sequence of the temperate Achromobacter xylosoxidans myophage Mano.
ABSTRACT
Streptomyces are Gram-negative soil bacteria that can degrade lignin and synthesize antibiotics. Some species cause mycetoma, pneumonitis, and bloodstream infections. Here, we present the genome sequence of the Streptomyces sp. strain Mg1 phage Salutena, a siphovirus in the subfamily Arquatrovirinae The genome is 51,993 bp, with 90 predicted protein-coding genes.

Streptomyces spp. are saprophytic soil bacteria that produce secondary metabolites with therapeutic potential. This announcement describes the isolation and genome annotation of Streptomyces sp. strain Mg1 siphophage Shady. Learning more about Shady's novel 45-kb genome, containing 76 predicted protein-coding genes, could be industrially advantageous when using streptomycetes for their products.
