Predicting genome terminus sequences of Bacillus cereus-group bacteriophage using next generation sequencing data

Predicting genome terminus sequences of Bacillus cereus-group bacteriophage using next generation sequencing data

Abstract Background Most tailed bacteriophages (phages) feature linear dsDNA genomes. Characterizing novel phages requires an understanding of complete genome sequences, including the definition of genome physical ends. Result We sequenced 48 Bacillus cereus phage isolates and analyzed Next-generati...
