Discovery NotesThe ambient temperature was 71°F (22°C) and the humidity was 59%. The sky was clear and sunny; No precipitation in the previous 24 hours of the time of collection. The soil itself was a dark brown, black color and slightly moist; it was also crumbly and clumpy in texture.
Naming NotesI named the phage after my track coach Dennis who we called DJ Mennis on days we had tough workouts. Trying to isolate this plaque felt like an uphill battle through many rounds of direct isolation and spot tests.
