Nine Cluster E mycobacteriophages isolated from soil.

Mycobacteriophages FireRed, MISSy, MPhalcon, Murica, Sassay, Terminus, Willez, YassJohnny, and Youngblood were isolated from soil using Mycobacterium smegmatis as a host. Genome sequencing and annotation revealed that they belong to Actinobacteriophage Cluster E. Here, we describe the features of their genomes and discuss similarities within these Cluster E phages.
