Arthrobacter, Curtobacterium

Lysogeny notes for Cluster AZ phages

Phages in this cluster are generally temperate. (This does not, however, guarantee that every single phage will be able to form lysogens, as some may have had important lysogeny genes deleted.)

This assessment has been made primarly by looking at bioinformatic evidence, such as the presence of an identifiable integrase or partitioning system and repressor.
