# Complete genome sequence of Salmonella enterica bacteriophage SeKF_80, isolated from wastewater in British Columbia

## TL;DR

This paper reports the complete genome sequence of a new Salmonella phage, SeKF_80, isolated from wastewater in British Columbia.

## Contribution

The novel contribution is the isolation and genomic characterization of the newly identified phage SeKF_80.

## Key findings

- The genome of SeKF_80 is 89,965 bp long and contains 174 predicted coding sequences.
- SeKF_80 shares species-level similarity with other Salmonella phages, such as 7–11.

## Abstract

Salmonella enterica is a Gram-negative inhabitant of the gastrointestinal tract of warm-blooded animals and commonly implicated in foodborne illness. Here, we describe the isolation of Salmonella enterica phage SeKF_80. The 89,965 bp genome contains 174 predicted coding sequences with 44 predicted functions. Phage SeKF_80 shares species-level similarity with Salmonella phages 7–11.
