ABSTRACT

With the purpose of finding phages that can target Manitoba farm isolates of Streptococcus suis , we began the characterization of a control strain, Streptococcus sp. bacteriophage 118 (ATCC 19951-B2). Here we describe the genome sequencing and reclassification of the 154,261-bp virus as an Enterococcus phage.
