Complete Genome Sequences of 38 Gordonia sp. Bacteriophages

Genome Announc. 2017 Jan 5;5(1):e01143-16. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.01143-16.

Abstract

We report here the genome sequences of 38 newly isolated bacteriophages using Gordonia terrae 3612 (ATCC 25594) and Gordonia neofelifaecis NRRL59395 as bacterial hosts. All of the phages are double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) tail phages with siphoviral morphologies, with genome sizes ranging from 17,118 bp to 93,843 bp and spanning considerable nucleotide sequence diversity.
