Chojdash3 Molecular genetic diversity of the myoviridae family cyanophages in Lake Khövsgöl (Mongolia) 1Limnological Institute, Siberian Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences, Irkutsk, 664033 Russia2Kovalevsky Institute of Biology of the Southern Seas, Sevastopol, 299011 Russia 3National University of Mongolia, Ulaanbaatar, 14200 Mongolia *tvbutina@mail.ru Received - 2014-05-14; Accepted - 2014-06-25 The diversity of the Myoviridae family cyanophages that inhabit Lake Khövsgöl was studied by analyzing g20 gene fragments. It was shown that the gene sequences of cyanomyoviruses are diverse and similar to those of the viruses from Lake Baikal. The presence of closely related virus strains in these lakes is associated with the geographical proximity, direct water connection, and similar hydrochemical parameters of the lakes. g20 gene, genetic diversity, cyanophages, Myoviridae family, Lake Khövsgöl |
