title: Whole genome sequencing of induced phages
design: Bacillus cereus group strains were grown in LB broth at 28C with shaking until mid-logarithmic phase, and prophages were induced by adding mitomycin C (1g/mL). Cultures were incubated until cell lysis was evident, and cell debris was removed by centrifugation and filtration (0.22m). Phage particles were pelleted by ultracentrifugation (33,000rpm, 2h, 4C) and resuspended in SM buffer. Phage genomic DNA was extracted using a zinc chloride (ZnCl) precipitation method. The purified DNA was subjected to short-read sequencing on the Illumina HiSeq 2565 platform.
