Complete genome sequences of three <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> jumbo bacteriophages discovered in Kenya
The genomes of three <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa Phikzvirus</i> bacteriophages isolated in Kenya are described. The genomes of phages vB_PaePAO1-KEN19, vB_Pae3705-KEN49, and vB_Pae10145-KEN51, respectively, had lengths of 278,921, 280,231, and 280,173 bp, with 36.93%, 36.84%, and 36.86% GC content, containing 419, 417, and 417 coding sequences (including seven tRNAs in each genome).
