| Discovery Notes | The soil was moist because my dad watered them the night before. Also, the morning of the collection the sprinklers were on, so I believe it did irrigate the plants a bit. I used a potting shovel and got 2 inches deep whilst removing little twigs and unwanted material as much as possible before taking a big soft ball size amount of soil. It contained pieces of roots, grass, sticks, impurities and some fine grains could be very small rocks. |
| Naming Notes | The reason I chose this name is because its a play on the reliability of egg plants, being a 2023 Daddy and my phage having similar characteristics. |

| Plaque Notes | Phage heads are icosahedra, about 60 nm in diameter, and consist of 72 capsomers (60 hexamers, 12 pentamers, T=7). Tails are flexible, 150×8 nm, and have a short terminal fiber and four long, jointed fibers attached sub-terminally. The latter fibers are absent in most laboratory strains of the phage. |
