Abstract

Burkholderia cepacia complex causes life-threatening respiratory infections. Here, a bacteriophage with activity against B. cenocepacia was isolated from wastewater. It has a genome size of 70,144 bp and has the taxonomic classification Irusalimvirus. It has no genes associated with lysogeny, bacterial resistance, or virulence.

Keywords: Burkholderia cepacia complex; antimicrobial resistance; bacteriophage; cystic fibrosis; genome.
