Sinorhizobium phage ΦM6 infects the nitrogen-fixing rhizobial bacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti. ΦM6 most closely resembles marine phages, such as Puniceispirillum phage HMO-2011, rather than previously sequenced rhizobial phages. The 68,176-bp genome is predicted to encode 121 open reading frames, only 10 of which have similarity to those of otherwise-unrelated Sinorhizobium phages.
