Abstract:The globally widespread genus
Sulfurimonas
are playing important
roles in different habitats, including the deep-sea hydrothermal vents. However,
phages infecting
Sulfurimonas
have never been isolated and
characterized to date. In the present study, a novel prophage SNW-1 was
identified from
Sulfurimonas indica
NW79. Whole genome
sequencing resulted in a circular, double-stranded DNA molecule of 37,096 bp
with a mol% G+C content of 37. The ge… Show more
