Abstract

This report presents near-complete genome sequences of 14 bacteriophages that infect Salmonella Typhi, identified through environmental surveillance in Bangladesh between August 2021 and June 2022. The bacteriophages, belonging to the genera Kayfunavirus, Macdonaldcampvirus, and Teseptimavirus, exhibit high degrees of sequence similarity and conserved genetic features with previously reported Typhi bacteriophages.
