Abstract:
We report the genome sequences of four novel phages that infect Mycobacterium smegmatis mc 2 155. Phages TribleTrouble, TClif, Llorens and CallaLilly have siphovirus morphology and double-stranded DNA genomes consisting of 61,665bp, 61,466bp, 59,708bp and 59,631bp, respectively. Based on gene content similarity, these phages belong to the K cluster of Mycobacterium phages. No novel genomic features were noted beyond those previously observed for phages of the K cluster.
