Abstract

Arthrobacteriophage MrAaronian contains a 54,509 bp DNA genome with 87 predicted protein-coding genes. MrAaronian has siphovirus morphology and was collected from a flowerbed soil sample in Poughkeepsie, NY, and isolated on an Arthrobacter globiformis B-2979 culture. MrAaronian has > 99% nucleotide identity with cluster AW arthrobacteriophages Michelle, Stayer, Sloopyjoe, and StarLord.

Keywords: Arthrobacter; bacteriophages.
