| Detailed Information for Phage Ewok |
| Discovery Information |
| Isolation Host | Mycobacterium smegmatis mc²155 |
| Found By | Olivia Kretlow |
| Year Found | 2016 |
| Location Found | Waukegan, IL USA |
| Finding Institution | Carthage College |
| Program | Science Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science |
| From enriched soil sample? | Yes |
| Isolation Temperature | Not entered |
| GPS Coordinates | 42.3954 N, 87.8269 W Map |
| Discovery Notes | The plants around the sample were alive and blooming. The mulch on top of the dirt has some white stuff that looked like really thick spiderwebs on top. I dug about 3 inches under the mulch and grabbed that dirt. |
| Naming Notes | My partner and I's initials spell EWOK (Erin Walz and Olivia Kretlow). Also our phage has a short tail. Since our initials spell Ewok we decided to name it that after the little creatures from Star Wars. |
