A marine roseophage RDJL{Phi}1 lytically infecting Roseobacter denitrificans OCh114 was isolated and characterized. RDJL{Phi}1 can package several host cellular proteins into its virions, and its DNA is refractory to several commonly used restriction enzymes. This paper presents the first report of a bacteriophage isolated from the aerobic anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria.
