Genome Sequence of Pectobacterium carotovorum Phage PPWS1 Isolated from Japanese Horseradish Eutrema japonicum (Miq.) Koidz Showing Soft-Rot Symptoms

摘要

Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum and its lytic bacteriophage PPWS1 were isolated from a Japanese horseradish rhizome with soft rot. Sequencing of the phage genomic DNA suggested that PPWS1 is a new species of the family Podoviridae and has high similarity to the bacteriophage Peat1 infectious to P. atrosepticum.
