Abstract

PA26, a novel lytic bacteriophage infecting Pseudomonas aeruginosa, was isolated, and the whole genome was sequenced. It was found to belong to the myoviridae by an electron microscopic observation. It had a linear double-stranded DNA genome of 72,321 bp. Genomic analysis showed that it resembled another Pseudomonas phage, LIT1.
