Abstract

Phage vB_SenA_SM5, active against multiple isolates of multidrug-resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi, was isolated from the sewage water of a tertiary-care referral hospital in Chandigarh, India. It has a 154.4-kb-long double-stranded DNA genome, belongs to the family Ackermannviridae, and is closest to Salmonella phage Chennai, which was isolated in southern India.
