Viruses Infecting a Freshwater Filamentous Cyanobacterium (<italic toggle="yes">Nostoc</italic> sp.) Encode a Functional CRISPR Array and a Proteobacterial DNA Polymerase B

ABSTRACT   Here we present the first genomic characterization of viruses infecting Nostoc, a genus of ecologically important cyanobacteria that are widespread in freshwater. Cyanophages A-1 and N-1 were isolated in the 1970s and infect Nostoc sp. strain PCC 7210 but remained genomically uncharacteri...
