Abstract

High diversity of the family Myoviridae cyanophages in Lake Baikal was recorded analyzing capsid assembly protein genes g20. The highest similarity of the analyzed gene fragments was established with cyanophages infected bacteria Synechococcus sp., and with genes of uncultured freshwater bacteriophages.
