Abstract
We report the complete annotated genome sequence of Microbacterium foliorum NRRL B-24224, a type strain isolated from the phyllosphere of grasses and a commonly used host for bacteriophage discovery. The genome contains no identifiable prophage or CRISPR or restriction-modification system, which suggests that it may continue to be a fruitful host for phage discovery.
Highlights
We report the complete annotated genome sequence of Microbacterium foliorum NRRL B-24224, a type strain isolated from the phyllosphere of grasses and a commonly used host for bacteriophage discovery
The NRRL B-24224 genome sequence was submitted to GenBank and annotated with NCBI’s Prokaryotic Genome Annotation Pipeline (11), which identified 3,264 protein-coding genes, 45 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA operons
Immunity nor prophage-mediated heterotypic defense systems should constrain the types of phages isolated on this strain (13)
Summary
We report the complete annotated genome sequence of Microbacterium foliorum NRRL B-24224, a type strain isolated from the phyllosphere of grasses and a commonly used host for bacteriophage discovery. The complete genome of NRRL B-24224 is 3,568,138 bp long and circular, and it has a GϩC content of 68.7%. No plasmids or extrachromosomal elements were identified.
