Abstract

The mycobacteriophages Burwell21 and Nivrat are two F1 cluster bacteriophages isolated from different soil samples in Charlotte, NC. Burwell21 has a 58,098-base-pair double-stranded DNA genome, with 99 protein-coding genes predicted, whereas Nivrat has a 58,009-base-pair genome, with 102 protein-coding genes predicted.
