Discovery Notes | This phage was discovered outside of Mark A. Nordenberg Hall on 1/9/17. It came from a flower bed outside of the hall that was covered in snow when it was about 20 degrees Fahrenheit. The soil sample contained soil, dead leaves, and mulch. |
Naming Notes | This phage has two different plaque morphologies and sometimes seems to be confused. It reminded me of myself because I am also always confused so I named the phage Dikec, which is my last name. |
