We report here the isolation and genome sequences of two novel phages, lytic for
Rhodococcus
and
Nocardia
species. Named RER2 and RGL3, both are members of the family
Siphoviridae
, and each possesses a novel genome of 46,586 bp and 48,072 bp, respectively. RER2 and RGL3 phages share a modular genome organization, as seen in other sequenced
Siphoviridae
phage genomes, and appear to share a common evolutionary origin. The genomes of these phages share no similarity with other
Rhodococcus
or
Nocardia
phages but are related to
Mycobacterium
phages. The data presented here extend our understanding of
Rhodococcus
phage genomics.
