| Discovery Information |
| Isolation Host | Mycobacterium smegmatis mc²155 |
| Found By | Benjamin Hallett and Ethan Hallett |
| Year Found | 2023 |
| Location Found | Orono, ME United States |
| Finding Institution | University of Maine, Honors College |
| Program | Science Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science |
| From enriched soil sample? | Yes |

| Discovery Notes | DosHalletts seems to be a highly aggressive phage. We expanded our titer from 10^5 to 10^12 after only one sample enrichment. |
| Naming Notes | My lab partner and I came up with this name because by coincidence, both of our last names happen to be Hallett. |
