| Discovery Notes | This phage was discovered in Glen Burnie, Maryland, USA on 09/14/2021 at a temperature of 21.1º C. The soil where the phage was extracted from was moist and grain-like. |
| Naming Notes | Annihilus is a supervillian from Marvel comics; this was a perfect description of our phage because it annihilated Streptomyces scabiei on our 10^0 from our first round of purification, leaving no trace of the bacteria on the plate. |
