The complete genomic sequence of Pseudomonas fluorescens bacteriophage PFP1, isolated from sewage samples collected in Liaoning Province, China, were sequenced in this study and found to be 40,914 bp long. The PFP1 genome is composed of linear double-stranded DNA with 55.81% G+C content and 45 putative protein-coding genes, and no rRNA and tRNA genes. Comparative genomics and phylogenetic analysis revealed that the Pseudomonas fluorescens phage PFP1 is a new member of the genus T7virus. This information can be used to develop novel phage-based control strategies against Pseudomonas fluorescens.
