Discovery NotesThis phage was found outside of Snell Hall at Western Kentucky University on September 9, 2014. It was in the soil under a rose bush, therefore the phage was in the shade. I only dug approximately 3 inches down to collect my soil sample.
Naming NotesThis phage was named after my grandfather, Timothy Rock, who has a keen interest in all of my studies, especially phage exploration.
