Abstract

We purified two novel bacteriophages from soil collected in Sioux County, Iowa: BAjuniper and Tedro. These bacteriophages were isolated from the host, Microbacterium foliorum. BAjuniper was assigned to cluster EB, and Tedro was assigned to cluster EF. Both phages display genomes typical of other phages in their clusters.

Keywords: bacteriophage; microbacterium phage.

Plaque characteristics of phages BAjuniper and Tedro after 36 (BAjuiper) and 48 (Tedro) hours at 30°C. (A) BAjuniper produced turbid plaques of variable shape and size with a mean diameter of 4.6 mm ± 2.1 mm (n = 25). (B) Tedro produced clear, round plaques with a mean diameter of 1.0 mm ± 0.3 mm (n = 25). Image analysis was performed with ImageJ (4). Scale bars = 10 mm. Arrows indicate typical plaques for each phage.
