| Detailed Information for Phage Settecandela |
| Discovery Information |
| Isolation Host | Mycobacterium smegmatis mc²155 |
| Found By | Daniel Settecerri |
| Year Found | 2016 |
| Location Found | Holland, MI USA |
| Finding Institution | Hope College |
| Program | Science Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science |
| From enriched soil sample? | Yes |
| Isolation Temperature | 37°C |
| GPS Coordinates | 42.7697 N, 86.1664 W Map |
| Discovery Notes | The phage was discovered through the enriched isolation in a sample from a compost pit in a backyard in Holland Michigan. |
| Naming Notes | The name for this Phage was derived from the pattern seen on the least diluted agar plate of my first set of serial dilutions. The plaque morphology of the phage had a subtle comet tail that looked like a candle flame and yielded seven plaques. This Italian name meaning seven candles seemed very representative. |

| Plaque Notes | Settecandela produces two distinct types of plaque morphologies which include small, clear plaques, as well as modified comet-tailed plaques. The plaques are less than and around 1mm in diameter and some are grouped, but most are scattered throughout the plate. Plaques are more apparent after 48 hours than 24. |
