Found ByKayla Wheatley, Bill Gottschall
Year Found2018
Location FoundPhiladelphia, PA USA
Finding InstitutionUniversity of the Sciences (now St. Joseph's Univ)
ProgramScience Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science
From enriched soil sample?No
Isolation TemperatureNot entered
GPS Coordinates39.9468 N, 75.2071 W Map
Discovery NotesThis sample was taken from an urban environment, about 12 feet from a building, and about 1 foot from foot traffic. This sample was moist and collected at a 6cm depth maximum.

Naming NotesI chose this name because it's my bulldogs name. He was named after a bulldozer, which deals with dirt and ground. I found his name fitting since the phage was isolated from a soil sample.

Plaque NotesThe phage completely cleared plates from 10^0 to 10^3. Webbed plates began at 10^4 and went through 10^6. The phage are lytic because the plaques were completely cleared, with clean edges, and a halo.

Part of a pooled DOGEMS sample. Although a complete sequence wasn't obtained, Dozer was identified as an EE cluster using PCR.
