Abstract

As an opportunistic pathogen, Citrobacter freundii is involved in a wide spectrum of nosocomial infections. C. freundii phages may prove useful as therapeutics for treating infections caused by multidrug-resistant C. freundii strains. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of C. freundii siphophage Sazh, which is closely related toEnterobacteriaphages T1 and TLS.
