| Discovery Notes | The sample was taken on September 10, 2017 at 9:15 am. The site was chosen on the edge of the flowerbed that has had lots of plant growth and soil amenities added to it over the last 5 years. The general location where the soil was taken is a leaf mulch pile behind 15 T. Hall Road. The type of soil is a loamy soil from the top few centimeters of the flowerbed. The air was about 70 degrees C and the temperature of the soil was about 62 degrees C. A garden trowel was used to remove the loose leaf material over the site and then a hole ~ 3 centimeters deep was created to get to material that was soil like. A plastic sandwich size ziplock bag was filled with the sample. This sample was transported to the lab in Goddard and stored at RT until use. |
| Naming Notes | The name for the phage came from the initials of my own name and the year of the isolation. |
