Genome sequence reveals a novel bacteriophage infecting Streptococcus equi, indicating potential therapeutic applications.
We have determined the complete genome sequence of a bacteriophage infecting Streptococcus equi subsp. equi, the causal agent of strangles in members of the family Equidae. This phage was isolated from wastewater and shows high similarity to C1 phage infecting other Streptococcus species.
