Abstract

Citrobacter freundii is responsible for various opportunistic nosocomial infections. Phage therapies against C. freundii may prove useful in human medicine for treatment of infections caused by the ubiquitous bacteria. Here, we announce the complete genome sequence of the C. freundii Felix O1-like myophage Mijalis and present its features.
