Abstract:
Bacteriophages RazzB and SwissCheezer were isolated from soil in southwestern Pennsylvania. RazzB is a cluster AP siphovirus infecting Arthrobacter globiformis B-2979 and contains a 69,522 bp genome with 65.8% GC content, 127 predicted protein-coding genes and no tRNAs. SwissCheezer is a cluster EK phage with a podovirus morphology infecting Microbacterium foliorum NRRL B-24224 and contains a 53,956 bp genome with 60.0% GC content and 54 predicted protein-coding genes.
