serovar Enteritidis is a Gram-negative bacterium and one of the most common foodborne pathogens. Biocontrol using bacteriophage in food products or animals is one possible means by which pathogenic salmonellosis infection could be inhibited. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of the T4-like Enteritidis myophage Mooltan.
