Abstract

Vulpecula, a temperate bacteriophage collected from soil in Dahlonega, Georgia using host Arthrobacter globiformis, is an AS1 subcluster virus of 37,766 bp (67.7% GC). Genome annotation suggests 64 open reading frames, no predicted tRNA genes, and ~98% sequence similarity to AS1 phages Ruchi (from GA) and Jamun (New Hampshire).

Keywords: genome annotation; viral bioinformatics.
