Abstract

Xanthomonas phage AhaSv was isolated from lake water. Genome sequencing showed that its genome is a linear dsDNA molecule with a length of 55,576 bp and a G+C content of 63.23%. Seventy-one open reading frames (ORFs) were predicted, and no tRNAs were found in the genome. Phylogenetic analysis showed that AhaSv is closely related to members of the genus Salvovirus of the family Casjensviridae. Intergenomic similarity values between phage AhaSv and homologous phages were up to 90.6%, suggesting that phage AhaSv should be considered a member of a new species in the genus Salvovirus.
