Abstract

Bacteriophages Ajin and OverHedge were isolated from soil in Tennessee using the bacterium Microbacterium foliorum. Ajin and OverHedge (cluster EF) have a genome of 56,993 bp and 56,559 bp, containing 86 and 81 predicted genes, respectively. The Ajin genome has unique genes, phosphatase and glycosyltransferase, compared to the OverHedge.

Keywords: bacteriophages; genome analysis.
