Discovery NotesWhen looking at the phages, there seem to be two different morphologies, there are the larger turbid plaques with rough edges and smaller more circular plaques. The phage's morphology is Podoviridae and has a very short tail
Naming NotesThe phage is called Puffcorn because in one of the original photos of the plaques, they looked kind of like puffcorn. They were kind of misshapen and had rough edges.
