Pseudomonas aeruginosa
is a major pathogen in humans and other animals, frequently harboring mechanisms of resistance to commonly used antimicrobials. Here, we describe the isolation of
P. aeruginosa
bacteriophage Zikora. The full 65,837-bp genome was annotated and demonstrates similarity to
Pbunavirus
phages, making Zikora a new member of this genus of the
Myoviridae
family.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
