Kluyvera bacteriophage Kvp1: A new member of the Podoviridae family phylogenetically related to the coliphage T7
A DNA containing bacteriophage, Kvp1, was isolated from the water of a very polluted river, the Matanza river, near the central district of Buenos Aires City. This bacteriophage infects bacteria belonging to the Kluyvera cryocrescens species (strain 21g) isolated from the same river. Kvp1 is a lytic...
