Complete Genome Sequences of Staphylococcus epidermidis Myophages Quidividi, Terranova, and Twillingate

Abstract

Staphylococcus epidermidis is an opportunistic pathogen that commonly colonizes human skin and mucous membranes. We report here the complete genome sequences of three S. epidermidis phages, Quidividi, Terranova, and Twillingate, which are members of the Twort-like group of large myophages infecting Gram-positive hosts.
