Abstract

We announce the complete genome sequence of a lytic podovirus, ΦCB2047-B, which infects the bacterium Sulfitobacter sp. strain 2047, a member of the Roseobacter clade. Genome analysis revealed ΦCB2047-B to be an N4-like phage, with its genome having high nucleotide similarity to other N4-like roseophage genomes.
