A Retraction of the Original Research Article
vB-ApyS-JF1, the first Trueperella pyogenes phage, shows potential as an alternative treatment strategy for Trueperella pyogenes infections

by Ji, Y., Song, L., Zhou, Z., Liu, X., Li, F., Guo, Z., Guan, Y., Yang, L., Feng, X., Sun, C., Lei, L., Han, W., and Gu, J. (2021). Front. Microbiol. 12:736304. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2021.736304

Following publication, the authors contacted the Editorial Office to request the retraction of the cited article, stating that further analysis of phage vB-ApyS-JF1 sequencing data discovered contamination with Mammaliicoccus sciuri DNA instead of Trueperella pyogenes. The conclusions reported in the article are no longer supported by the analyses; therefore, the article has been retracted.

This retraction was approved by the Chief Editors of Frontiers of Microbiology and the Chief Executive Editor of Frontiers. The authors agree to this retraction.
