The host bacterium has been characterized as a Pseudomonas species. The psychrophilic nature of the organism and its requirement for salts in sea water suggest that it is an indigenous marine bacterium. The bacteriophage active against for the bacterium is a hexagonal shape with particle diameter of 60mμ and stable under in situ marine conditions. The phage is completely, inactivated by treatments with organic solvents such as chloroform. The fact suggests that the phage can be interpreted as a phage contained lipids as a structural component. The phage also contains singlestranded RNA as its genetic material. The base composition (moles%) of the phage RNA are: adenylic acid, 24.0; guanylic acid, 33.5; cytidylicacid, 18.9; uridylic acid 23.6. The phage is a new type marine RNA-containing phage.}, pages = {77--89}, title = {Properties of a Marine RNA-containing Bacteriophage}, volume = {25}, year = {} }
