Abstract

The complete genome of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophage PM105 is 39,593 bp long. The phage belongs to the B3 family of transposable Mu-like phages, as confirmed by the presence of bacterial DNA joined to the phage genome ends. PM105, together with other B3-like phages, form a newly arising species.
