Abstract

We announce the complete genomes of Klebsiella phages ValerieMcCarty03 and ValerieMcCarty04 isolated from wastewater treatment plant samples that infect a multidrug-resistant Klebsiella oxytoca clinical isolate. These phages belong to the T4-like cluster and fall within the Jiaodavirus genus.

Keywords: Klebsiella oxytoca; T4-like; ValerieMcCarty03; ValerieMcCarty04; bacteriophage; jiaodavirus; phage therapy.
