Discovery NotesThe soil was retrieved from the golf course behind my house on September 4, 2016. There was a divot in the grass about two inches deep. It had just rained so the soil was dark in color. Also the soil was next to a drain.
Naming NotesPsalm 118:24 is my favorite verse. This verse states, "This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." Because this verse is a great daily reminder, I thought it would be a great name for my phage, and the name is original.
