Complete Genome Sequences of Mycobacteriophages Balomoji, Crumble, Frederick, ShowerHandel, TinyTimmy and Zabiza
We report the genome sequences of six novel phages infecting <i>Mycobacterium smegmatis</i> mc <sup>2</sup> 155. Each phage has siphoviral morphology and a double-stranded DNA genome. These genomes represent five different clusters of Mycobacterium phages, including a cluster K1 phage with a genome deletion that impacts the genes involved in lysogeny.
