Abstract

Actinobacteriophage Finny contains a circularly permuted 40,313-bp double-stranded DNA genome with 63 predicted protein-coding genes. Finny was directly isolated from a soil sample collected in New Braunfels, Texas, that was incubated with Microbacterium foliorum SEA B-24224. Finny is closely related to bacteriophages MCubed, Andromedas, ColaCorta, Eleri, and Sansa.
