Genome of phage Loca, swabbed from a shopping cart handle in Stephenville; 17,475 bp, 25 genes.

Abstract

Microbacteriophage Loca was extracted from a shopping cart handle swab sample in Stephenville, TX, and isolated on a Microbacterium foliorum NRRL-24224 culture. The 17,475-bp double-stranded DNA genome contains 25 predicted protein-coding genes and has >96% nucleotide identity to bacteriophages Quaker and Livingwater.
