## TL;DR

Scientists discovered and sequenced a new bacteriophage called KingKamren, which infects a soil bacterium called Microbacterium foliorum.

## Contribution

The paper presents the genome sequence of a newly discovered cluster EK bacteriophage, KingKamren, isolated from a soil sample.

## Key findings

- KingKamren's genome is 54,721 base pairs long and contains 51 putative genes.
- Seventeen of the 51 genes have predicted functions identified in the study.

## Abstract

We report the discovery and genome sequence of a cluster EK bacteriophage, KingKamren, isolated from a soil sample collected in Plattsburgh, New York using the bacteria
Microbacterium foliorum
, B-24224. Its 54,721 bp genome contains 51 putative genes, 17 of which have predicted functions.
