Genome sequences of two phages isolated from soil.

The isolation and characterization of additional phages is crucial for adding reliable viral sequences with relevant biological information to viral databases. In this study, we present the complete genomes of two phages obtained from different soil samples.

Draft genome sequence of sp. strain B10-11 isolated from the tomato rhizosphere.

In the present work, we present the draft genome sequence of a new putative species associated with the tomato rhizosphere.

Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Phage Particles from Antarctic and Mediterranean Seawater Ecosystems.

Anthropogenic activities are a key factor in the development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria, a growing problem worldwide. Nevertheless, antibiotics and resistances were being generated by bacterial communities long before their discovery by humankind, and might occur in areas without human influence. Bacteriophages are known to play a relevant role in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in aquatic environments.
