Discovery NotesMy phage is similar to the phage ByePhelicia. Our phage DNA are cut from the same enzymes (EcoRI, HaeIII, and SalI), but in different sizes of fragments. My phage individually from the TEM pictures are 206nm long. They also do not affect at room temperature.
Naming NotesMy phage name is inspired by my Chihuahua, Titan Taco Burrito Garcia, who is back at home in Hawai'i. It is also inspired by my favorite drinks, a hot chai tea and chai tea lattes.
