Abstract

Here, we announce the complete genome sequence of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis (S. Enteritidis) bacteriophage MA12, a 41-Kb chromosome. The strain can infect both Campylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni) and S. Enteritidis and can be used in phage therapy experiments with poultry and poultry meat.

Highlights

  • We announce the complete genome sequence of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis

  • Bacteriophage MA12 was isolated from a surface water sample using Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis

  • Morphological analysis by TEM revealed that phage MA12 belongs to the family Siphoviridae [4], it has an icosahedral head of 81 nm, and a long tail of 123 nm by 14 nm

Summary

Introduction

We announce the complete genome sequence of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis These pathogens can be controlled by specific phages applied throughout the food chain [3]. Bacteriophage MA12 was isolated from a surface water sample using Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis The phage was purified using the top agar method and polyethylene glycol (PEG)-precipitation.
