Discovery NotesThe park soil sample was taken from an elevated enclosure of plants in an urban area. The soil was surrounded by different flowers and plants and a fenced ring approximately 6 cm in height enclosed the plants. There were bees surrounding the plants during the time when the soil was retrieved. The soil was retrieved at 7:00 PM near the edge of the park.
Naming NotesThe name came from a type of bread called brioche bread. It is a rich bread and it looks round just like our phage plaque morphology.
