Abstract

Arthrobacter phage Ascela was isolated in North Georgia. Its genome is 44,192 bp with 71 open reading frames and a GC content of 67.4%. It shares 99.29% nucleotide identity with Arthrobacter phage Iter. Actinobacteriophages that share over 50% nucleotide identity are sorted into clusters, with Ascela in cluster AZ and subcluster AZ1.

Keywords: Arthrobacter; bacteriophage genetics; bacteriophages.
