摘要：

A virulent Riemerella anatipestifer bacteriophage, RAP44, belonging to the Siphoviridae family of tailed phages, was previously isolated from feces of healthy Muscovy ducks in China. A complete genomic sequence analysis indicates that the phage's genome consists of a linear, double-stranded DNA molecule of 49,329 nucleotides. Eighty open reading frames (ORF) were identified. Putative functions could be assigned to 24 of the ORFs. The location of these genes was consistent with organization of the genome in a modular format which includes modules for host cell lysis, tail morphogenesis, head morphogenesis, and DNA replication and modification modules. Until now, no R. anatipestifer phage genome sequence has been reported in the literature. Therefore, this study represents the first complete genomic and molecular description of the R. anatipestifer phage.
