Characterization and genome sequence of Microbacterium foliorum phage Morrigan, of cluster EA6 with siphovirus morphology

Bacteriophage Morrigan, which was isolated from soil using NRRL B-24224, is lytic with siphovirus morphology. Morrigan's 40,509-bp genome has a GC content of 62.8% and 66 putative protein-coding genes, of which 31 could be assigned putative functions. Based on gene content similarity to actinob...

Description
Summary:Bacteriophage Morrigan, which was isolated from soil using NRRL B-24224, is lytic with siphovirus morphology. Morrigan's 40,509-bp genome has a GC content of 62.8% and 66 putative protein-coding genes, of which 31 could be assigned putative functions. Based on gene content similarity to actinobacteriophages, Morrigan is assigned to subcluster EA6.
