| Found By | Ashley Yoo |
| Year Found | 2014 |
| Location Found | Baltimore, MD USA |
| Finding Institution | Johns Hopkins University |
| Program | Science Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science |
| From enriched soil sample? | Yes |
| Isolation Temperature | Not entered |
| GPS Coordinates | Unavailable |
| Discovery Notes | My sample was collected on September 2, 2014 at 9:09 p.m. recently after some rain, making the soil very saturated. The temperature was 73 degrees fahrenheit. I dug a depth of about 2-3 cm. The area is relatively undisturbed, but it is an artificial set up, so it must be closely maintained. The soil was near a street with many buildings, cars and foot traffic. |
| Naming Notes | Phundamental Phages are one of the most abundant elements of life on the earth--it's PHUNDAMENTAL to our experiences as human on this planet. (plus word play is fun (phun?) ) |
