# Genome Sequence of Bacteriophages Bouchard and Windest Isolated Using Arthrobacter globiformis B-2979

## TL;DR

This paper reports the genome sequences of two bacteriophages, Bouchard and Windest, isolated using a specific strain of Arthrobacter globiformis.

## Contribution

The study provides new genome sequences and classifies the phages into specific clusters based on gene content similarity.

## Key findings

- Bouchard's genome encodes 91 proteins in 57,304 bp.
- Windest's genome encodes 99 proteins and two tRNAs in 51,773 bp.
- Bouchard and Windest are classified into AU2 and AY clusters of Actinobacteriophages, respectively.

## Abstract

Bacteriophages Bouchard and Windest are siphoviruses isolated using
Arthrobacter globiformis
B-2979-SEA. The genome of Bouchard is predicted to encode 91 proteins within its 57,304 bp genome, whereas the genome of Windest is predicted to encode 99 proteins and two tRNAs within its 51,773 bp genome. Based on gene content similarity of at least 35% to actinobacteriophages, Bouchard and Windest have been assigned to the AU2 subcluster and AY cluster of Actinobacteriophages, respectively.
