High diversity and novel species of Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophages.

ABSTRACT: The diversity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophages was investigated using a collection of 68 phages isolated from Central Mexico. Most of the phages carried double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) genomes and were classified into 12 species. Comparison of the genomes of selected archetypal phages with extant sequences in GenBank resulted in the identification of six novel species. This finding increased the group diversity by ~30%. The great diversity of phage species could be related to the ubiquitous nature of P. aeruginosa.
