Novel Giant Phages vB_(A)erVM₃32-Vera and vB_(A)erVM₃32-Igor and Siphophage vB_(A)erVS₃32-Yulya Infecting the Same Aeromonas veronii Strain

Three novel Aeromonas phages vB_AerVS_332-Yuliya, vB_AerVM_332-Vera, and vB_AerVM_332-Igor and their host Aeromonas veronii CEMTC7594 were found in the same water + sediments sample collected in a freshwater pond. Complete genome sequencing indicated that vB_AerVS_332-Yuliya (43,584 bp) is a siphoph...

Popis
Shrnutí:Three novel Aeromonas phages vB_AerVS_332-Yuliya, vB_AerVM_332-Vera, and vB_AerVM_332-Igor and their host Aeromonas veronii CEMTC7594 were found in the same water + sediments sample collected in a freshwater pond. Complete genome sequencing indicated that vB_AerVS_332-Yuliya (43,584 bp) is a siphophage, whereas vB_AerVM_332-Vera (294,685 bp) and vB_AerVM_332-Igor (237,907 bp) are giant phages. The host strain can grow at temperatures from 5 °C to 37 °C with an optimum of 25–37 °C; siphophage vB_AerVS_332-Yuliya effectively reproduced at temperature ≤ 25 °C, the optimal temperature for giant phage vB_AerVM_332-Igor was 25 °C, and giant phage vB_AerVM_332-Vera infected host cells at 5–10 °C. The genomes of these phages differed significantly from known phages; their level of nucleotide identity and values of intergenomic similarity with the corresponding neighboring phages indicated that each of these phages is a member of a new genus/subfamily. Giant phage vB_AerVM_332-Vera is a member of the proposed Chimallinviridae family, which forms Cluster D of giant phages that possibly evolved from phages with shorter genomes. Giant phage vB_AerVM_332-Igor is part of Cluster E, the known members of which preserve the size of genomes. Phages from Cluster F, containing Aeromonas phages among others, show a gradual decrease and/or increase in genomes during evolution, which indicates different strategies for giant phages.
