Abstract
We present the complete genomes of the Mycobacterium smegmatis phages Carlyle and NihilNomen, isolated from soil in Las Vegas, Nevada. The phages were isolated and annotated by undergraduate students enrolled in the Phage Discovery course offered by the School of Life Sciences at the University of Nevada Las Vegas.
Highlights
We present the complete genomes of the Mycobacterium smegmatis phages Carlyle and NihilNomen, isolated from soil in Las Vegas, Nevada
The phages were assigned to clusters based on genomic sequence similarity using the phagesdb.org database and Phamerator software with default settings (1, 5)
Carlyle is cluster A1 and NihilNomen is cluster J based on the average nucleotide sequence identity
Summary
We present the complete genomes of the Mycobacterium smegmatis phages Carlyle and NihilNomen, isolated from soil in Las Vegas, Nevada. The phages were assigned to clusters based on genomic sequence similarity using the phagesdb.org database and Phamerator software with default settings (1, 5). Despite their similar geographic provenance, the phages are not closely related.
