Characterization
ClusterUnclustered
Subcluster--
Annotating InstitutionUnknown or unassigned
Annotation StatusNot sequenced
Plaque NotesForms multiple sized plaques. There are small plaques and larger plaques. We determined that the multiple sized plaques come from the same phage through isolating phage from a small plaque as well as a large plaque. Both of these isolations formed the multiple sized plaques when we made new plates from them.
