Abstract: The complete genomes of the new Erwinia amylovora bacteriophages Loshitsa2 and Micant are 43,092 bp and 43,028 bp long, respectively, encode 51 putative proteins, and have two tRNA genes. Comparative analysis with representatives of the class Caudoviricetes suggests that bacteriophages Loshitsa2 and Micant are related to LIMElight bacteriophage belonging to the family Autographiviridae and could be proposed to be members of a novel subfamily.<br /> (© 2022.
