This article corrects Microbiology Australia [Published 18 August 2025]. doi:10.1071/MA25039

The authors advise of errors in Tables 2 and 3 of the paper. In Table 2, the correct propagation host for phage Ø4 should be Nocardia asteroides (ACM 2963). In both Tables 2 and 3, the correct code for DSMZ cultures should be DSM.

The corrected Tables are provided below.
