# Genome Sequence of the Cluster EF Bacteriophage TinyMiny, Isolated using Microbacterium foliorum

## TL;DR

This paper describes the genome of a new bacteriophage called TinyMiny, isolated from soil using a specific bacterium.

## Contribution

The paper presents the genome sequence and classification of the newly isolated bacteriophage TinyMiny into the EF cluster.

## Key findings

- TinyMiny has a 57,042 base pair double-stranded DNA genome.
- The phage encodes 86 genes and is classified into the EF cluster based on gene content similarity.
- It was isolated using Microbacterium foliorum NRRL B-24224 from a soil sample in Maryland.

## Abstract

The bacteriophage TinyMiny was isolated from a soil sample collected on the campus of the University of Maryland Baltimore County, in Baltimore, Maryland, using the bacterium
Microbacterium foliorum
NRRL B-24224. TinyMiny is presumed to be a lytic bacteriophage, consisting of a double-stranded DNA genome 57,042 base pairs in length and encoding 86 genes. Based on gene content similarity to actinobacteriophages, TinyMiny is assigned to the EF cluster.
