| Discovery Information |
| Isolation Host | Mycobacterium smegmatis mc²155 |
| Found By | Seiji Shaw |
| Year Found | 2018 |
| Location Found | Providence, RI USA |
| Finding Institution | Brown University |
| Program | Science Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science |
| From enriched soil sample? | Yes |
| Isolation Temperature | 17°C |
| GPS Coordinates | 41.832034 N, 71.38012 W Map |
| Discovery Notes | Sample found in the entrance of Blackstone Park, near fence post bordering a community garden. The soil was moist with morning dew, under woodchips, dry leaves, moss, and weeds. |
| Naming Notes | This phage was one of two found from this soil sample. This phage had inconclusive enzyme digest results and was deemed much more interesting than his relatively unambiguous brother. Hence, this phage was named BadStone. |
