Abstract:
Bacteriophages Biscayne, Bush and GreenIvy were isolated from soil samples in Miami, FL using Microbacterium foliorum NRRL B-24224 as host. Transmission electron microscopy shows siphoviral morphologies for all three phages. Based on gene content similarity to other actinobacteriophages, they are assigned to the EE, GA and EA5 clusters, respectively.
