| Discovery Notes | I collected the soil sample near a restaurant named Chick'n Bubbly along Oakland Avenue on January 9th, 2017 at 11:12 a.m. The temperature when I collected this was 20 degrees Fahrenheit. It snowed on the previous day, therefore when I collected the sample, there was still a little snow around it. There was a small dead bush near my soil collection spot. The soil sample that I collected was on the surface and was somewhat dry. |

| Plaque Notes | The plaques generated by Phage MichaelScott have small, clear, haloed morphologies. The diameter of the plaques are 1mm in the clear center and 2mm including the halo. When the phage is initially present in lower concentrations, the region of turbidity surrounding the plaques are larger. |
