Complete Genome Sequence of a Novel Myovirus Which Infects Atypical Strains of Edwardsiella tarda.

ABSTRACT: We present the genome sequence of a novel Edwardsiella tarda-lytic bacteriophage, MSW-3, which specifically infects atypical E. tarda strains. The morphological and genomic features of MSW-3 suggest that this phage is a new member of the dwarf myoviruses, which have been much less studied than other groups of myoviruses.
