From enriched soil sample? | No |
Isolation Temperature | 20°C |
GPS Coordinates | 41.99722 N, 72.643611 W Map |
Discovery Notes | The environmental sample (soil) was taken at a low point in a lightly managed wildflower field that had not been exposed (in my knowledge) to pesticides, garden soil, or fertilizer in at least 20 years - only mowed a few times a year. A hole was dug with a trowel about 9 cm deep and the sample was taken from this soil, including grasses/roots within soil. It was lightly raining and about 19.7 Celsius. |
Naming Notes | I named it after my daughter, Clementine. |

Lysogeny Notes | The phage exemplified lytic life cycle and did not show evidence of lysogeny. |
Annotating Institution | Unknown or unassigned |
Annotation Status | Not sequenced |
Plaque Notes | Direct isolation and plaque assay yielded varying plaque morphologies including small (pinprick) and medium (ballpoint pen tip) sized clear plaques. Through purification down to a single clonal population, the plaques were generally of a uniform medium (ball point pen tip) size and clear. |
