Discovery Notes | About half an inch deep near a pond on 9/12/21 at 4:18pm. It was 71 degrees F and about 60% humidity. Unfertilized soil near the base of a tree next to a pond. |
Naming Notes | Dolos is the Greek god of trickery and deception, and this phage's plaques can misleadingly appear to be two different morphologies depending on when they are observed. Given the overall difficulty in purifying and amplifying this phage Dolos seemed an apt name to reflect its deceptive nature. |
