ϕRS138, a bacteriophage of the family Siphoviridae that lyses Ralstonia solanacearum, was isolated. The genomic DNA of ϕRS138 was 41,941 bp long with a GC content of 65.1 % and contained 56 putative open reading frames. The ϕRS138 genome could be divided into three regions based on similarities to other genomes: (1) a region containing genes encoding a putative transcriptional regulator and an integrase, similar to the prophage genes in Ralstonia solanacearum K60-1; (2) a region encoding proteins related to structural modules and virion morphogenesis, similar to genes in the Pseudomonas phages of the family Siphoviridae; and (3) a region highly similar to the genomes of other Ralstonia solanacearum strains.
ϕRS138是一种能裂解青枯雷尔氏菌的长尾噬菌体科噬菌体,已被分离出来。ϕRS138的基因组DNA长度为41,941 bp,GC含量为65.1%,包含56个推定的开放阅读框。基于与其他基因组的相似性,ϕRS138基因组可分为三个区域:(1) 一个包含编码推定转录调节因子和整合酶的基因的区域,类似于青枯雷尔氏菌K60-1中的前噬菌体基因;(2) 一个编码与结构模块和病毒体形态发生相关蛋白质的区域,类似于长尾噬菌体科假单胞菌噬菌体中的基因;(3) 一个与其他青枯雷尔氏菌菌株的基因组高度相似的区域。
