Abstract

The lytic cold-active bacteriophage VSW-3, belonging to the Podoviridae family and infecting the host Pseudomonas fluorescens SW-3, was isolated from the Napahai plateau wetland in China. With the development of sequencing technology, the study of Pseudomonas genomic diversity has increased; however, knowledge of cold-active phages infecting Pseudomonas is limited. The newly sequenced phage VSW-3 was classified based on virion morphology by transmission electron microscope. Sequence analysis revealed that the genome size was 40,556 bp with an overall GC content of 57.54 % and 46 open reading frames. The genome was organized into several modules containing genes for packaging, structural proteins, replication/transcription, and phage lysis. The sequence contained 45 potential promoters, 3 transcription terminators, and yet no tRNAs. This is the first report of cold-active Pseudomonas fluorescens bacteriophage genome sequencing.
