Complete Genome Sequences for Two Myoviridae Strains Infecting Cyanobacteria in a Subarctic Lake

Microbiol Resour Announc. 2020 Mar 5;9(10):e01339-19. doi: 10.1128/MRA.01339-19.

Abstract

We isolated two closely related strains that belong to the Myoviridae family and infect cyanobacteria in a shallow subarctic rock basin lake. Their host was identified as a member of the Synechococcus-Cyanobium complex. Sequenced genomes of the two phages were 244,930 bp and 243,633 bp. We describe their annotation and highlight some noteworthy features.
